Question Headlight kit recommendation

Hello all, new to the forum here. My wife and I just got a 2006 Civic Coupe last week. The car is in great shape and we like it very much. When we looked at it the previous owner pointed out that the car had custom LED headlights and they looked fine during the day. These headlights are the Angel Eye kind. The first time I drove it at night (last night) it became immediately apparent that the headlights were very cheap and dim, to the point that they are useless to me. I want to replace them for something more useful, don't care if it looks pretty or not, just want to be able to see the road at night. Are there any decent LED or HID kits that you guys/gals could recommend? I am willing to pay for a decent kit as my wife's safety is more important. Please advise.

Re: Headlight kit recommendation

Go back to stock headlights so it's at least safe to drive for now?
New from Honda, new from aftermarket, or used from a recycle yard


They would also be an 'un-hacked' starting point for retrofit at your convenience later
