SO I want to put HIDs in my 99xj. What is the best set I can buy that comes with the bulbs, ballast, housing and everything?

Look up Lead Foot on here. He's selling retro fits for a damn good price. Also search " HID Headlight Kit" he has a for sale post and is taking orders

Can a mod sticky some HID threads or make a summary thread that has links up top in the pinned topics? People are asking about HIDs every day now.

OP, please dont buy some hids and just throw them into 7x6 housings. Do a proper retrofit with a projector (no the ebay "Projector" housings arent the real thing). You can view my thread in my sig or if your Jeep is your DD and pride and joy, spend a few more bucks on some mini projectors and hardware from www.theretrofitsource.com and read all over www.hidplanet.com

Good luck!

Before you spend the money look up your local laws about adding hids,Some states have laws where its illegal to add them to anything that didn't have them oem.If you live in the city a good h4 swap with relays is more then enough light.

Relays? As in?

As in an electrical relay.

After I asked that I researched it some more and answered my own question lol but I appreciate your answer !

It's a really easy setup, many of us have done it and it can be a lot cheaper than running hid. Just a simple headlight harness upgrade (putco heavy duty h4 harness) will make factory sealed beams look better or get h4 7"x6" housing and run any h4 bulb you want.

Well I bought a h4 "reflector" style housing and I put the 60/55w Sylvania Silverstars in them and they only project in front of me, but it's a crappy projection. So I'm gonna order the upgraded wiring harness, some 200mm autopal housings, and some 100/90w ultra blue bulbs. Yay or nay?

Don't mean to hijack your post or anything just trying to be able to see the road at night ya know.... lol

I'm running the hella h4 housings with hella h4 100/80w halogen and I see just fine. Just make sure you align your headlights correctly.

This is the guidance I used when I adjusted my headlights after lifting the xj.

h4 wiring harness with the relays As for the headlights hella 200mm e code and shop around for the best price.Then you just need the headlight blubs sometimes the headlighs come with them some times not.

askingxforxit

I believe mine are the hella performance housing? And they came with standard 60/55w halogen
