For use with the factory wiring, go with the 9007SU Silverstar ULTRA bulbs.
These are a step brighter then the Silverstar bulbs that were available for your MY truck a few years ago.
I got these from Europe for my Motorcycles, under the Osram label, and they were brighter then the Silverstar bulbs available here in the US, and the Ultra bulbs had 0.25 A less draw then regular Silverstar bulbs.
Anything else, and you are looking at either an upgraded headlamp wiring harness or buying the HID look bulbs, which actually put less lumen on the ground ( sounds good that they are 8000 K color temp though
)
