Re: crap headlights
On my 08 and the the dipped headlights are the best I've owned, however the fog lights and high beams are just average, so I'll probably tweak them to the Philips X-treme halogen bulbs once they become more available in the states.
If your lights are crap-o, besides the other suggestions, halogens lose 30-50% of their brightness towards the end of their life as the burned filament deposits residue inside the bulb.
