I also have a F53 but Chevy P series also have the same issue. I just build a new wiring harness and hooked up to the battery and use relays to control the power, using the same switches inside to hook up to the relays. If low current due to wire size this will help you.....

You most likely have a poor ground for the headlight circuit. The easiest way to find out is to disconnect the plug and follow the wire to the ground stud. The ground studs are generally welded to the frame or a frame support member. They are rarely if ever painted or otherwise coated after welding so they rust rather quickly. The rust acts as an insulator, reducing the current flow.
If you can't easily find the ground stud push another wire into the ground terminal on the socket and run it directly to the negative post of the battery. If you have an improvement in the light output you'll know what needs to be done....

Ours are not much better. Though generally I avoid driving at night whenever possible. Last December we got stuck out late, pitch black on windy road. Whick knuckle drive. After that I vowed to start looking for options. I'm leaning to skipping making stock changes and installing some LED driving lights instead. Figure it will be cheaper, get better light and since I don't use them often should be effective for my needs.
