Extra Lighting Power.
So my car came with http://www.custommaxima.com/product/...e/Default.aspx Those headlights installed when i bought it, and while they look cool i'm not entirely sure how bright they are compared to other options/factory. Does anyone have any experience with them?
ANYWAYS, The main question i had was what are my options for more sheer lighting power? During the winter i spend ALOT of time driving snowy empty mountain roads, and even with the brights on i can't see as far ahead as i'd like to. When i take my Pathfinder, I have off-road lights which are perfect, but the vast majority of the time I take the max, and it's hard to see. What does everyone suggest so i can actually see?

Yeah, Not really sure why someone would spend 200 plus on halo headlights and leave ****ty projectors in there. I would really rather not spend a bunch on getting them HID retrofitted, Is it possible to just swap better bulbs into them? Or does the halo thing make that impossible?

Check hidplanet.com
The short answer is bake headlights or use a heatgun to open them. Next cut out crappy projector and install newer projector (ebay or hidplanet for sale) wire up and reseal.
