the stock bulbs are pretty crap in the FTO.

if you want to go HID kit then they cost a fair bit and require you to bolt in a transformer pak (1 for each headlight), but they are still plug'n'play. They noticably change the brightness though.

someone will hopefully be along shortly to back me up on this but i think that they are illegal.

if you want brighter without resorting to HID's then just go buy some ultrawhite bulb replacements, not as bright as HID's but still better than stock

Just take your old bulbs into supercheap or autobarn and they will get the right ones for you ;)

HB4 for low beams and apparently HB5 for high beams. Just by a hid kit can get em roung the $100 mark. But i warn you they are not legal but i havent heard of anyone ever getting done for them. Sams been defected for almost everything on his car but never his lights :lol:
