Folks,
I drove my car yesterday in the midnight where there are no lights in an old road. My Full beam is not strong as my friend's Land Cruiser VXR.
Does anyone have any idea how to power my headlights.
Thanks

You cannot change the power to your headlights, however, you can make some upgrades. Is everything stock on your ES now? Do you have stock HID's currently?

I bought it brand new with no modifications to the whole car at all.

If it has HID your low beams should be super white unlike of those halogen.

The left is halogen the right is HID

In 2006 they offered HID and Halogen Headlights. I am guessing you have Halogen ones. Halogen lights seem to stink in projectors sometimes.
Open up your hood, do you see Yellow Warning stickers on the Headlights telling you that they get hot? Or not? If there is a sticker than you have HID Headlights.

Regardless whether they are HID or not, The ES330 High beams are the same on both, and personally are some of the brightest high beams ive seen..... Make sure both bulbs are working, and that they are properly aimed. Also, are the lenses fogged up or yellowing?

One last thing. It is hard to compare your vehicle with the Land Rover or many other vehicles for that matter. Different headlight setups, types of systems, etc. It would be easier comparing apples to apples.
