I bought a Wagoneer Header panel from a guy from a while back and forgot to get the harness. It will be going on my 1988' laredo.. and ive got some questions..
1. Can I buy HID harness that's for a vehicle with the same High and Low beam setup Camaros, Chevy 1500s, etc..
2. If I buy such a Harness would it be possible to somehow hook it up to my Laredo's harness seeing that the bulbs are 2 small prongs on the Wagoneer headlights and mine are a 3 big prongs.
3. If I get that far are they're any Projector Headlights that I can buy or a Write-up for that small of a headlight.

He is a troll.
As far as I'm aware your options are extremely limited for lighting fixtures and wiring. If you can't find a Wagoneer harness (junkyard) you'll likely have to build your own. The factory headlight wiring is sketchy at best, anyway.
As for the lights I've never heard of HIDs in that format. You may be stuck with sealed beam halogens. LED MAY be an option but again it's a very strange format.

Making your own isn't difficult, and it would be much better for your existing wiring to take the load off of it with your own home-grown harness. You use the existing harness just to switch the relays, and pull power directly from your battery, or better yet, your PDC if you have one.
