I need more light from my (2017 XLT) low beams, what are my options?

FWIIW... I washed the headlights and fog light lenses before going to work around 5am. Definitely a much improved light output. I am muuuuuuch happier with this light than the factory. Never got flashed (My commute is over an hour) and welcomed the slightly whiter light but mostly felt I could actually see with little strain compared to the factory bulbs...

I have tried Wagner Ultra whites, 9005 LEDs and neither were worth a darn. I then remembered the thread where it was suggested to use Philips HIR 9011 bulbs and trim a portion of the top tab off to make them fit in the hole properly. I did this mod and the highs are amazingly bright now!

I did the same up grade....
New low beams, new high beams,
And moved the old high beams to the fog housings.
Just had to trim tabs on the bulbs, no mods to the truck.
1st pic bulbs...... next 3 high beams.
