Default New head lights need some suggestions and help

Ok I want to put some new head lights in. Any suggestions? I want something bright that doesn't look stock for the most part i guess. I am not sure how the "euro" head lights would look. After I would buy they this may sound stupid but how do you install them? Is it pretty easy?

I have Silverstar Ultra low beams and like em. I need to re-aim them though a bit. Whatever you choose just make sure that when you change them DO NOT touch the bulb with anything. The oil from your hands will cause them to burn out prematurely.

Here'* is a way to put the 9005 in the 9006 side, that is the high beam bulb in the low beam side.

Not a single car has flashed there lights at me in 3 years. Just make sure your light'* are adjusted right and be sure the new bulbs are in all the way. I would never go back to the stock(9006) bulb, EVER.

He'* not talking about getting euro lights, he'* just saying to use the high beams as your low and high beams. Which that link tells you how to do, with some minor modifications.
