Hi Kevin,
Vance is right on about better sealed beam headlights at a modest price. The
part number of 7" halogen headlights is H6024. Along the same line is an
even brighter bulb called "BriteLite" number H6024BL. They are the same
wattage as the original bulbs so the wiring need not be modified. There is a
picture of the bulb and package at:

I've been running the BriteLites for two years and love them. They should
cost between $25 and $30 for a pair.
