Ive looked everywhere and I can't really find any HID headlights/conversion kits for my Jeep..I know the headlights are sealed beam so I knew it would be a little harder to find. If anyone can help me out it would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'm sure there are cheaper ones out there, but here's one option.

first thing - you need to get projector housings (NOT H4 housings). The scatter pattern is way different. http://norcalmr2.com/pegasus/

second - if you expect to have high beam/low beam, you need to get bi-xenon HIDs. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ht_4985wt_1165

third - keep the color temperature below 6000k. Anything above that will decrease the light output and you'll end up worse than your stock headlights (you know those ricers that drive around with the really blue/purple HIDs? Yea...they can't see ****...)

and honestly, i have a simple h4 conversion and an upgraded harness, and my lights are bright as ****. I see no need for HIDs that justifies the extra cost, but that's just me.

Whats the difference between an H4 and HID? Because if that works just as good then ill do that..sorry I dont know much about headlights haha

H4 is a bulb size and HIDS are aftermarket bulbs so if you get a H4 conversion kit off Ebay like me, you need a H4 HID kit. I am running a H4 Ebay special projectors with HID 55W Bi-Xeon. If you want HIDS you need to get rid of factory lights. Using these lights http://norcalmr2.com/pegasus/ are the proper way to run HID because the H4 conversion from Ebay does make the light scatter everywhere. Where you buy the HID it completely up to you I might get chewed out from other members but I have never had any luck from DDMTuning.com I am running 8000k if your wondering.

Gee oh Dee

Moved to advanved tech. Your headlights are beyond stock.

Gee oh Dee when did you become a mod? LoL

Gee oh Dee

Shocking, huh?


It was made official this week.

I'm really proud and excited.

Congrats man (don't ban meeeee)

Gee oh Dee

The ban cannon isn't let off that often, but if you really deserve it, I've got good aim.

Seriously, though, thanks. Your a good guy, you follow the.rules. we both know your not a trouble maker.

DDM is a great site for hid's and those h7* housings from norcalmr2 are great. But xjsport is working on something cool right now. He's taking a housing and putting the projector in them himself. It's about $145 plus some parts but you have to do it yourself. Idk when he'll be done, but he might be doing a write up on them.

Lol how does 3000k sound? Lol jk, I had that in my legacy track car and they sucked on the road, bright yellow, 55w hid's. It was a track car so I didn't care, just made it look really jdm, but it still looked horrible on road. I'm pretty sure 4300k is the closest to halogen you can get.
