luck for you i just went thru a search for HID's
well my brother his friend and 3 other guys in his mustang club all have the ones i just ordered and they all told me to get them
i searched ebay and google and i mean for the price they are totally awesome!!!!

the raptors are what i ordered and i got 2 sets of them one for my headlights that im hoping ill try and do a write up for because im going to keep the factory sealed headlights and remove the bulb and insert an HID and the other for my harbor freight offroad lights

2 of the mustang guys including my brother have these
http://www.ddmtuning.com/Products/DD...ast-35W-or-55W


i got the 50w 4500k for my offroad lights i was told they will be pupil burning bright and make night wheeling like day and for my headlights i just got the 35w 6000k ones my brother has that setup and they are intense bright

Alfreado make sure to post up your write up in here if you make one as i would be interest.

Paul if you get the kit from the listed site should get the light housings that change the headlights to the h4 style housings and use the h4 HIDs that would make you your kit.

i got an ebay deal on mine, H4 housings and 35w 6000k HIDs w/ ballasts. they were cheap-o HIDs and the ballasts took a dump a few months later and the company wouldnt do anything for me. so i went through DDM tuning and got some 35w 5000k lights. the 35w are plenty bright but 6000k was still a little to blue for me so i went with 5000k. my buddy has 8000k in his zj and they are waaay to blue. but HID is the way to go. remember to disconnect your DRL (daytime running lights, wire under the hood by the drivers side firewall) so the HIDs wont stay on after you turn the jeep off or just flip on the high beams before you turn it off.
