Yes they will work. But you need to upgrade your headlamp harness for two reasons:

1- Your headlaights will be noticeably brighter.
2-You are much less likely to melt the connector at your headlamp switch or burn up the switch itself.

www.eautoworks.com has the harnesses as do other vendors. Get the one for H4 lights.

It looks like they will. For the price though I would check out autopal on ebay. I got both headlights and 80/100w 6000k bulbs for like $50. You will also need to upgrade the harness if you are looking at running 80/100w bulbs, which will cost another $50 or so. By far the best upgrade I have done to my xj.

That's exactly what I did on my Comanche.

On my wife's XJ I just did the harness with the stock halogens. What a difference!!!
