Thanks for the info.  I was not aware that the problem lay in the 
design of the headlamp assembly.  Although I should have, because 
numerous other cars use these same bulbs with better lighting.  <duh!>

Do you have any idea on the cost/options involved in switching them.  
(One of mine is cracked as it is)

I found the easiest way to cheat was to buy some brighter center 
marker lights.  I get brighted on occasion, but quickly repromand.  
The brigter bulbs almost make up for the deficiency of the crummy low-
beams.
