Headlight upgrade...

What are my options for a brighter headlight? I'm not sure which bulbs fit a Stella.

Isn't this the highest wattage bulb that fits a Stella w/halogen? Otherwise wouldn't you melt or risk melting the housing?

Here's a thread asking the same question.

I highly recommend the PIAA HS-1 bulb. It can be found on amazon for just under $40 shipped.
