Default headlights upgrade

i currently have sylvania white light bulbs they are the original lights but they are dim as hell and i can only see about 15-20
feet in front of me. this is dangerous and causes me to drive slower during the night. the street lights are brighter. how can i upgrade my lights to get them as bright as they can be but still legal? i have little to no knowledge on what i should do. i also want to do the work myself.

Get a Putco harness and install it.

Amazon.com: Putco 230004HW Premium Automotive Lighting Wiring H4 100W Heavy Duty Harness and Relay: Automotive Amazon.com: Putco 230004HW Premium Automotive Lighting Wiring H4 100W Heavy Duty Harness and Relay: Automotive

After that, we'll carry on.

The second one has a few topics under Cherokee Forum, then say more results, clic that. That should keep you reading till noon or so. One thread I remember reading is "Stock Headlights suck" , enter that into search bar here.
Wasn't thinking earlier, should have gave you a link to Amazon
