I would go 75 any higher will put a lot of amps on the wiring. Now you say headlight is dim? Is it just one light that is dim or both? How do the lenses on the lights look? Are they clear or tan in color? If they are tan the 3m makes a kit that cleans them and makes them look new again it is part number 39008. Let me know how it goes.
