Maybe a stupid question, but if I change out the lenses would it give a brighter output? How hard is it to change out the lenses if possible? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2-5-C...Q5fAccessories

^^ Will this fit?

Thanks in advance.

I think with all the effort involved in doing that retroswap, alongside the risk of opening up your oem headlights and contaminating with dirt/humidity etc... Not worth it even if it would help.

My last car was a 04 Acura TSX and it's headlight output blows away my 06 GS300's. All I can think of is the TSX had clear projector lenses. Both cars had Osram CBI's.
