You won't notice any difference if you just look at the Jeep. The headlights still look the same, the guts of them are just different. Are you looking for light pattern pictures?

The H4 conversion basically allows you you to ditch the factory sealed beam headlights and use an "open" style headlight that uses H4 bulbs. Lots of people, including myself, do this to run H4 hid lighting. It's also a good time to upgrade your headlight wiring.

AND THIS

Cruiser’s Headlight Upgrade Harness Instructions
 
 
Absolutely plug and play. Remove grille and headlamp bulbs. I fed my harnesses from the passenger side starting between the battery and the back of the headlamp housing, over to the driver side. Plug the driver side bulb into the new harness. Attach the new harness's ground wire under one of the small bolts on the radiator support after scraping the paint off under it. Attach the harness to the existing harness behind the grille working toward the passenger side. . Plug the new harness plug into passenger headlamp. Plug original headlamp plug into receptacle on new harness. Attach the ground for the passenger side just like you did the driver side under a radiator support bolt. Attach relays with provided bracket on the passenger side inner fender. Connect power wires to battery.

EQUALS A VERY AFFORDABLE, SAFE HEADLIGHT CONVERSION THAT IS PLENTY BRIGHT AND NOT OFFENSIVE TO ONCOMING DRIVERS.
