Depends if you give a xxxx about other road users!!!!
I do 
, and so I use Silverstar 55/60W headlight bulbs which are excellent when in main beam, and pretty good in dipped beam. They give a brilliant white light which I prefer to the xxxx annoying blue xxxx!!
If you want super brightness, PIAA bulbs are meant to be the bo11ocks, not sure if they are completely road legal though- if you're bothered?
No doubt someone will confirm.......
Beware of some sellers on ebay claiming 100% extra brightness etc as I bought some xenon gas halogens which were supposedly brighter than my silverstars but it turned out that they were no way near as good!

Re: headlight bulbs
Just replaced my standard bulbs with the halford's one.
Very nice 
I've always thought the standard bulbs weren't very bright, these ones are a bargin on 2 for 1.

Re: headlight bulbs
Yep, I put a set of 50% Brighter Halfords bulbs in my '2 and they're a little better than the 30% brighter bulbs that were in there before - but they're much much better than standard bulbs.
Well worth swapping them over at this time of year IMO.

Re: headlight bulbs
Put in a set of the Halfords Xenons. At that price you cant really go wrong. First impressions -
Slightly brighter than standard bulbs, not sure about 50% brighter though..
Yellow/white light seemingly the same colour temp as a standard bulb
Not tried them total darkness yet so not sure how well they actually perform for visibility and detail... CHeers!
