Best headlight upgrade?

Hi everyone,

I am looking to replace my headlight. What I am looking for is brightness since I drive a lot at night. Should I just get a brighter bulb or do you suggest a 3 light kit like the heritage? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

HID kit. Seriously, put them in my Rhino and they outperformed my buddies Rhino with 6 aftermarket lights.

Plan to put the kit on my Bob as well.

Got a link? How much does that cost?

I don't have one picked out for the Harley yet. There is a site sponsor here that offers them, I have no personal experience.

I bought a kit off of Ebay based on a forum of Rhino owners recommendations. It was a cheap ($50 dollar) kit. I figured for that kind of money, if they only lasted a year or so it would be worth the cash. They worked great, however the kit I bought 2 years ago had pretty large ballasts and they would not work on a harley. I have read other offer smaller ballasts now, I still wonder where I will put it.

But think 4-5 times brighter to get a reference.
