Lightbulb Headlight Bulbs

I recently bought some Lightning style headlights off ebay for my F150. They look great, a lot better than the stock headlights. The only problem I had is that they don't light nearly as good as the stock ones. I don't think the high beams even light up as good as the stocks regular beams. I don't know what to do? Can I just upgrade the lightbulbs to get better lighing? I don't really know much about headlights so I really need some help here. Any Suggestions?

you cant adjust your bulbs.. but you can adjust the whole headlamp assembly.. i use to run Matrix Ultra White bulbs in mine.... untill i burnt up the wiring.. too hot of bulbs.. they were 80/100 watt.. ha blinded everyone... also had 100 watt driving lights.. never got pulled over... now i have 60/80 and 60w driving lights

1fast4.6, where did you get those cool headlamps from? I've been looking for some new ones cause the stock ones on my truck are all faded due to the Florida sun down here beating on them 24/7.
