Scary stuff! Any recommendations for bulbs?
My headlamps are cloudy, is this on the inside?
Oh and what are the reverse bulbs? Need some much brighter ones!

Even the post-facelift lights are bum droppings really for lighting up the road. Projectors are better but in the interim, as Paul said - try t-cut on the headlights to polish them up and use some decent bulbs like night breakers (+90%).

If you can get some projectors with a decent RHD beam, you'll be onto a good start. Did that with the Civ, which is even worse!
An HID kit (4300K - stay away from blue nonsense) will give you a decent light.
I only wish the manual levelling worked on the rice lights - mine are adjusted fine and do not cause nuisance - unless I've a load on board. Actually, it's the flip up on the N/S on dual carriageways that's the issue, not oncoming.

No level adjustment on my JDM, which sucks as the lights point down more than they should
