Headlight Bulbs

I've got TYC black projectors and want to replace the bulbs in them for something a little brighter. What kind of bulb should I go with that's not going to damage the headlights/wiring harness? Thanks in advance.

Mtec's price is more reasonable......PIAA just more expensive than Mtec

dirtySAMURAI is a splendid one to behold

the tyc projectors, as-is, do not give out good lighting. try going for a headlight booster kit (will allow you to run those crazy 100 watt bulbs) and purchasing 100W sylvania silverstars if they make them...
