I find myself using high beams quite often to.see more of the road. Seems the led low beams are not enough for me. When I do turn on the highs I get flashed.... are there any higher lumen led bulbs that would fit our low beam projectors?

Want to see more of.the road without blinding others.. I think the low beam pattern is good except that the let's.inside them are not bright enough
Well I get a good bit of people flashing me with the low beams thinking I have my high beams on. I drive 90% rural roads. I personally wouldn't go any brighter on mine, but to answer your question I haven't seen any discussion here of alternatives on the 2016+ LED's.
I am very happy with my 16LC headlights. No problems with visibility.

By the way, I have a light tint in front we need them here in Asia just to lessen the heat going through the windshield on those very hot mid days. I'm sure this affect the frontward visibility. Can't not have the tint so next best option is the higher lumen bulbs... I'm pretty sure without the tint the LEDs would be sufficient....
That explains... Do you have auto-switching headlights on your LC (it stays in high beam option unless it sees other headlights or rear lights)? Standard on US version.

Auto headlights are of no use with me there is always a headlight taillights in side/front... And in he few times I am on the highway very easy to turn to high.... My van has the auto headlight things and it just bothers me....

Low beams on our 2016 are borderline obnoxious already. They are bright. If your tint is not ceramic that is where I would start. Re-tint the vehicle with better ceramic tint for better heat rejection and you can go back across the windshield with an even lighter tint and still have a cooler vehicle yet better night visibility. Also, on my last vehicle I tinted the sunroof as well. Every little bit helps.
I have another non-LC vehicle with the front windshield tinted and it really does kill night visibility. If I had to do it over again I would not tint the windshield at all or much lighter. There was a miscommunication when I was purchasing the vehicle and the dealer was making sure "everything" got tinted LOL. My eyes are pretty light sensitive and it is a God-send during the daytime though.
