Depends on your budget. Because safety is so important, it's not a good place to cheap out. Besides, better lights make night riding way more fun.
For taillights, the Dinotte is fabulous but spendy. NiteRider universal tail is also excellent. Among the cheaper lights, most are junk. The PlanetBike Superflash is a very good value and is one of the few cheaper blinkies I can recommend as is the Radbot 1000.
Headlight needs depend on where and how you ride. I use a 13W HID system, but many of the new LED models are pretty decent. I think something that gives off 200 lumens is an absolute minimum, and more is better.
