I went from the old "stock" lights to a set of diamond clear lights. I also added a pair of Silverstar bulbs and the difference is night and day (no pun intended)

HID's use less power. Retrofit or forget it.

That's what I'm running also, with Xenon bulbs. I do not recommend the Diamond Clears from BOI, and they will not let you send them back (guess I'm going to sell mine on Ebay or something). The night time light pattern is just plain weird. The ones from LRS are wonderful (but they do cost more) !

Those are xenon bulbs in the pic. They had the slight bluish color to them.
