I enjoy the whole swap. I just don't understand why my HID's stay on once I turn them on.If the car is off, I can turn them both on and off. Once it is running, I can turn all of the lights off EXCEPT the HID's. I don't think this is normal. Is anyone familiar with this problem? Thanks.

I so was expecting that. Sorry. I just posted this from my phone. I tried taking a picture on my phone but the quality is trash. I most definitely will though. Thats what I figured though.

First I bought the 7x6 conversion Projector fixtures. I believe they ran me about $25 shipped. When you get any of these conversion Headlights they come with a little blue bulb in the bottom, well what I did was swap the bulb for anAmber bulb and tap it in to my tuning signal. So now when Im signaling that little bulb reflects in the whole housing. I bought the Xentec BiXenon 6000k kit and they look great. The kit ran me about $65 which also was a plug and play kit. I have them adjusted perfectly. Im not blinding anyone at all. I havent noticed anyone adjusting their mirrors and one of my good friends drives a bagged Silverado on 22' rims and I dont even bother him. I get an easy 20" clear visibility. I enjoy my headlights every day.

I thought the same, but the way the BiXenon kit works is that it has a relay pack that plugs into the headlight closest to the battery and has a whip that runs into the other headlight and there is an inline fuse that runs to the battery. It is a fail-safe install. Im still trying to figure it out. It seems its only with the BiXenon kits. Regular HID's have individual ballasts that plug into each headlight. I just had to have High Beams. I will post some pictures.

Agreed! I would love to have HIDs on my XJ. It would be weird for me though because I have two sets of KC Hilites that are halogens so my light output would be multi colored lol Also great to hear there's more Suzuki riders on this page! I own a Suzuki quad right now, I'm planning on getting a GSXR soon though!

Do you use the Hilites as driving lights? If not, you can HID them and just use them as flood lamps. Or get HID-match bulbs, not 100% a match but pretty close. Sylvana makes some decent ones.
