I don't think it is the bulbs as much as the lens the reflection isn't rightfor some reason.

I never thought the headlights on the 2000-2005 Montes were that bad. I used to have a '99 Chevy Venture and I frequently found myself trying to turn on high beam whenever it already was on high beam. The lenses on them weren't hazy either and didn't seem out of alignment. Maybe they were though.

I have HID's they are plenty bright enough. I can't ever go back to regular headlights again.
