Did the HID retrofit by @Luke111 - had a lot of fun working on it.

But now my Low Beam is considerably more powerful than my High Beam.

I wouldn't want to do an intense install for the High Beam like the HID retrofit, but has anyone found an direct replacement bulb for the High Beam that has noticeable differences? Seems like in a previous thread here on the forum the bulb replacements were marginal.
 
Replaced my 9005 high beams with 9011's (trimmed tabs). Not an exact 'drop in' but trimming the tabs is so simple it might as well be considered a replacement. Made a noticeable difference for me.

Run 9011's in both the high and low beams of my 80 series as well.
 
I have OPT-7 LED's in all headlight and fog lights. Love them. Been using them for 5yrs now in many different vehicles. I recommend them to everyone.
Plug and play. $100. Amazon for 2day shipping. A little cheaper on the OPT-7 website if you sign up for email's.

I did this as well when I did my TSX HID upgrade. Made a decent difference.
