Upgrading my 06 Headlight

I'm looking to get more light output from my 06 Train. Anyone have any suggestions?

Get a brighter bulb. Hell of a lot cheaper. That's what I did, cost a few bucks, big difference.

Any recommendations on bulbs? I'm looking to do the same thing without breaking the bank.

I dont remember the exact number, but go to Walmart and get a Sylvania, I think it's called a Clearvision. About $12, best $12 you can spend. Shud have read further, as previous post , Silverstar Ultra Sylvania is the one. I'l go away now, my bad.

I bought the black LED headlight for my Night Train and I love it. Looks great when off, and super bright when on.

This is an Adjure Tri-Bar Black dot with a 60/55w bulb. About $80 from J&P. Very bright, looks cool, great light pattern. If just a bulb is what you want an Osram Nightbreaker is super bright.
