Fitted a HID globes to jeep #1. I got the globes as part of a very cheap job lot. They are 6000k globes with 55w ballasts. The ones that move in for high beam. Was a bit of stuffing around to make it all fit & work. Did it so I could go back to QI as a straight plug in if I didnt like it. Needed a diode to separate hi & low beam circuits. Just one relay for the lights, & power to the globes for the high beam electro-magnets.
They make the QI driving lights look yellow. They do a better job of lighting road signs than my old 130w QI high-beam. 75 or 100w HID would be even better, probably with 5000k globes. This was a budget fit though.
