i have HID headlights and fogs that i converted to Hid buy just drilling hole through backside and sealing with RTV. also have a relay kit for the headlights so they always work when turned on cause it draws power straight from battery not through stock harness.

i also have 4 4" 55 watt lights on the roof rack and when i turn those on you can tell how much power they draw vs the HIDS..

hids well worth it for $38 a kit off ebay (H4) and i think i paid $48 for the diamond cut headlights them selves.
