Dim J Spec lights - what bulb?

I know this is another old problem / question, but every thread I've looked at with search just goes around in circles without any recommendations!

 

I have a J Spec facelift, surprisingly I hear you say, my headlamps are dim. I have to drive down unlit lanes couple of evenings a week and it's a pain in the arse!

 

I'd love HID, but haven't won the lottery yet!

 

I have looked at several different makes of bulbs as replacements and the favourites at the moment are Phillips Blue Vision.

 

Questions are:

 

1. What bulbs do people recommend for best vision in J spec

2. What bulb codes for Facelift headlamps

3. What wattage to safely avoid melting anything

4. Anything else I should consider?

 

Thanks,

OK well at Billing I bought a set of phillips whatnot bulbs but had to do a bit of jiggery pokery ie cutting off of lugs bits to get them to fit my J-Spec. What are the UK codes for the dipped beam bulbs as so far the main beam ones were the only ones I could muller in reasonably. and do phillips do a bulb that fits dip beam?
