HID Xenons seem a little weak, expected more - Options?

Hi,
I recently purchased a '04 9-5 with the Xenons and must say they don't seem to provide that much more light than my '00 9-5 did without Xenons. They do shine far on high-beam, but the light intensity is pretty dismal and in the rain, is tiresome. Can I improve performance easily, for not too much $$$, and would the new bulbs last?!
THanks!!
Matt
