    Has anyone upgraded their bulbs or replace them with something brighter?

    The stock units are Xenon I believe. I've never looked into the wiring, but I believe it's higher voltage. If you did change to something else, I would imagine some ECU some place would not be happy about it.

    I would thought the factory Xenon lights would be amazing in this car?

    Not scared of the dark are you John? :oops::oops:

    The factory fitted lights are worse than my C class Mercedes by a country mile.
    Just not good enough for a car that cost in excess of $250k. Maybe as the bulbs are from 2016 they have lost some of their brightness.
