My headlights are very dim. I am not sure if replacing the bulb will fix the problem, but it seems like a possibility. About a year ago I used one of the 3M kits to buff out my headlights and it worked pretty well at making the lenses clearer. The buffing also slightly increased the brightness of my headlights, but not to the level I want. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? If so what were your steps to solving it?
Install new bulbs. Edmunds.com had the same problem even after clearing out the lenses. 1996 Lexus ES 300: Let There Be (Better) Light
Bulbs do grow dim over time. If yours are many years old, you'd be likely to notice improvement just by replacing them with new, original-spec bulbs ... let alone any costlier, "premium" replacement. -Chap
Yeah, if your going replace them with halogens, do not DO NOT get those $40 bulbs that say they are brighter. they are not. if you want to go brighter, than go with an HID kit from VVME on ebay. I have one and it works wonderful. Light cutoff is great. its not scattered all over. I think I paid about $75 for mine, dual beam, and 55w kit. a 35 watt kit is sufficient. I got mine aimed lower so I dont bother anyone. they bulbs for either halogen or hid will be 9003/H4
