I'll keep you posted as far as the next meeting goes.

As for HID's, I'm running 55w 6000k bi-xenon bulbs. They are 1583289x better than factory.

Not a problem at all aside from a SLIGHT flicker when my High Beams are on. And even then, you can't notice the flicker from the cabin. Everything was just plug and play size H13's.
I got them from a vendor off craigslist from Mission. I believe I paid ~$100 for the set (bulbs & ballasts) + installation. They guy does great work, really down to earth.

If you're interested, I can PM you his number.

I just ordered the hids for my jeep, got 35w 6k digital slim ballast from ddm tuning, also some 6k high output reverse led light bulbs, 3w per side and about 110lumens. Can't wait to get them and try them with my ipf lenses

:jealous:

I have a set of 7" halo headlamps waiting to be installed. I just haven't had the chance to buy an H4 HID kit and pay for the installation.

I hope the HID's look bright with the cut-off line so I dont bother people, i also bought the anti-flicker modules incase I need them. Bought also an LED Hi-output dome light, only one since i couldn't find out if the two dome lights are different size bulbs. Also a 2.5watt hi power led license bulb that may be overkill lol. I hope I get them this week so I can install them on day off on sunday.

Eh, without changing the lense on the jeep then it may be worth it since backed up by a reputable offroad brand but personally not worth it the stock lense that have alot of scatter.

Just ordered a pair of H4 6000k hi/low bulbs to try to get these angel eye lenses installed. If it doesn't work out I might just get me some IPF lenses
