Good replacement headlights? Options

[SKL1]

Restoring my '73 914 2.0 to park next to my original (and my first car) '71 914 and want to seriously upgrade the headlights. The car will spend most of its life in Arizona where it is VERY dark at night as street lights are few and far between.
I've gotten spoiled by the great HID or halogen lights in various Audis, BMW's and even my VW GLI.
Anyone know of a good BRIGHT aftermarket light that will fit the original sockets??
I've got Cibie lights in the '71 and they are only marginal.

TIA

Can a person just put in the bulbs in the lights that I currently have?

Would I need to add a relay, and if so, where does it get put in at?

If you have H4 headlights, yes, you can uprate to a higher wattage bulb. Relays are a good idea even with the stock lights, so yes, you''ll need them if you try to run way more watts,

Articles abound on headlights relays, and there are pre-done setups.
They aren't even a little magic. A relay is just an electrically-actuated switch.

'Basically' the original headlight circuit just connects to the relay's coil to work the switch. Then you replace that wiring the to light with thicker wires from the relay contacts and your BIG +12 wire from the battery.

And that is the challenge in a 914 - running an 8-ga or so wire from the battery to the trunk area to wire into the relays. Figure out how you will do that safely, and then the relays is a piece of cake.
