Default Replacement Headlight Bulbs?

Ive tried to read several threads and I cant wrap my head around what new lamps to get. I have a 2011 FX4 Eco and I just want bright headlights without modding the truck, its a lease. Any help please? Thanks.

I am very happy with the Silverstar Ultras. You can get them at most auto parts stores or Amazon. The H13s are direct replacements for stock.

HIDs are super bright and can always be removed when the lease is up.

Yes, those exact bulbs. That's what I have and they are much brighter than stock. H13 is the size you're looking for.

Google them and you might find them a little cheaper.

Philips Extreme Power bulbs are good too.

I agree. I've had good luck with both.

Is there a huge difference in full headlight replacement and just upgrading the bulbs? The replacement headlights use the same bulbs so ultimately they should be close in performance (obviously not looks of course).
