Which headlamps to buy? Phillips X Treme Power H13's or Euro Dezigns Xenon Krypton's? Or is there not a big enough difference between the 2?

 

Honestly you wont see much difference unless you change the housing. I went with the IPF H4 conversion and it is a huge improvement over stock. Much brighter and better light pattern.

 

there are a lot of option for upgrading the headlamps (which sorely needs to be done!).

Search the forum for Northridge IPF kit. And do a search for Daniel Stern.

 

I speak from experience. I have gone through every setup possible short of retrofits.

If you want to keep your stock lens, get the xtreme power.
Ipf lens are a good bonus, but the real power comes from a harness upgrade like rallylights offers.

Here's my ideal setup and what I will probably be leaving hid for (yes it's that good): rallylights harness, ipf lens, with Philps extreme power +80%.
Hid in my hella housings are good but not optically efficient.

 

Hmmm...never thought about running the rallylights harness with the IPF housing. I bet those lights would be much better with the extra juice

Like posted above, the bulb will make little difference in a shitty stock housing. Look into replacing the housing and harness to get a decent amount of light. Or look into LED setups from Trucklite or JW Speaker.
