Simple bulb swap unless you want to go nuts and put in LED strips, spotlights, or strobes! The bulb swap takes about 30 seconds.

Agree with everyone on doing the strip light - it is the easiest mod ever.

Doing puddle lights was a pain and didn't seem that much brighter (a lot of light gets wasted in the housing I think).
