I'd prefer an HID kit, but if the Halogen offers completeness, simplicity and value, why not?

How soon will it be available in quantity?

How will this kit be better than the Hella kit currently available (for about $200), or the Cibe stuff from Stern (much more $$) that could not have been simpler to install? (fully plug and play). I installed it and I am no wiring genius.

I think that this is probably the kit that AEV mentioned was in the works from ARB. I am sure it will be top notch with some great optics. Sign me up.

Well....the stock lights aren't anything to scream about, but I thought mine were the shits too until I figured out one day that the highs were shining up into the trees and not on the road. After I adjusted them down, it made a big difference and they don't seem to be too bad now. But I still needed the Light Force lights I installed to make sure to see those moose.

Sill, I wouldn't be opposed to some new headlights as well.....

I replaced my original headlights with Delta Quad Bars which worked fine until
it rained. The left one got half full of rain water and neither of the high beams worked until the left unit dried out. A long way around the barn to ask if your units will be sealed against rain?

How much current draw from these new bulbs? I'm personally fine with my drop-in HIDs. They draw only 7a once warmed up and work pretty well. At $50 a pair. I would like to see the housing however.

I'm interested, but I'm gonna be one of those guys that will need to see some more info on the replacement buckets/reflectors before I would consider it.

I have a long history of running E-code headlights in my vehicles. I even went as far as to import European headlight housings for my old BMW car. If the light output and pattern of the IPF reflectors are comparable to the Cibie's or Hella E-codes then I would be interested in checking them out.
