L405 headlamp upgrade

The dip beam, and full beam on my 405 are Censored compared to the same on my 322
Why?
What can I do to the 405 to make them better?
Cheers

Is there just one to pick from? Or is there an exact one you would use from their range?

i found my cheap ebay 6000k hid bulbs helped with better road coverage as did a very small 'up' tweek on the headlight adjustment..

i have been thinking about replacing the hid bulbs with led ones but havnt got round to it yet. ... - .- -.

When you do let me know although they do seem a bit pricey : https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08N56JYJT?tag...qvlapnhub0 Geoff

Shame they can't spell "vehicle"

edit:
don't want to hijack the thread but missed this first time, so just to add "manufacturers" as another can't spell Chris

2014 FFRR 4.4 SDV8 Autobiography Barolo Black
2012 RRS SDV6 HSE Baltic Blue
and before I saw the light:
2011 Suzuki Grand Vitara SZ5
