My wife could use brighter lights in her 1995 850 non turbo wagon. What bulbs can I replace the originals with to obtain brighter safer light? What bulbs , and what sizes? Thanks

    You want better lights? Go to FCPGroton.com and order the E-Code replacement lens for your headlights. Its that simple. You can put 200w bulbs in the stock headlights (won't last very long though...) and you won't get any better lighting than what you have now. The glass is $85 a piece. Along with those E-code lens you can install some of the PIAA Super White bulbs, just use the stock wattage and you'll get the lighting you're looking for. This has been covered thousands of times on this board.
