I purchase a bulb set when there is a sale and it ends up costing about 150 per year for top tier bulbs with authentication stamps. With some of the rural roads I travel it’s a no brainer.
With original bulbs, you will have significant improvement with a new set.

Thanks for your input Bubbles!
After checking out the Philips/Osram extra brightness I ended up placing order on OSRAM standard 66140 Xenarc. Figured they will do the trick while providing reasonable life time (which 4 years warranty indicates).
And, very nice 40 Euros each!
You seems to be a light expert. Do you take out the projector lenses and clean them up as well? Mine looks pretty dimm but might be the buld. We'll see!
