Default Oldsmobile Silhouette

I bought a 2000 Shiloutte to keep at my winter home In Florida. The van is in terrific condition. Problem is the headlights. The lighting wasn’t up to par, so I installed new headlamp assemblies and the brightest Halogen bulbs I could buy. I had the lamp assembly adjusted by a mechanic, still I’m not satisfied. Is there anything else I can do?
I do belong to an Oldsmobile forum but it doesn’t get much action. I will post this question on that forum also.

Lots of choices there, not sure what you are looking for.

Thanks Jim. I’ll look into the LED conversion kit. More than I would like to spend, since I’ve already spent quite a bit chasing the problem. But if i can be sure it works I’ll go for it. Have you any experience with the kit? Is it plug and play?

Make sure the bulbs have a solid, clean ground. If possible run to battery ground on block.
