If I wanted to put HID bulbs in this housing, would I be able to?

Yup just as long as you have a H4 H.I.D kit your all good

You could but your cutoff and output will be **** People need to realize HID lights do not emit light they way halogen lights do thus he need for projectors .

Im running em without projectors and I love my H.I.D set up, I overpower those pesky ricers with there deep blue H.I.D's! And no mine are not blue pure white 4300k

Mr. Pink

i wish there were a way for me to like this post.

HIDs are in with AutoPals for the time being. My buddy who installed them said I didn't need the harness, since he didn't use one for his. I have the B-Xenon High/Low, and my low beam appears to be similar to how it was before the upgrade. And my high beam switches over to the 6000k but isn't stupid bright. I actually aimed them down a bit, drove home and didn't get flashed. So I'm assuming the harness will make it brighter, and turn my low beam to 6000k?

Mr. Pink

6000k is the color temperature

Unless you have projectors, you will be blinding everybody. I had HIDs and hated them, I felt self-conscious driving everywhere. I only had 2 other drivers flash me in all the time I had them in, but that doesn't mean they weren't too bright. Now I have Autopal housings with HD harness. Never been happier.

This this this this this. Unless you're using the NorCal projectors, don't run HIDs. Spend you're money on a good h4 bulb, autopal housings and the harness. I need to do this still...

Mr. Pink

what both of them said is 100% true, Not to mention that HID's are illegal in most states(unless they came stock).


I have Autopal housings, a custom harness(similar to Putco), and Yellow(2700k color temp) Hella 100w low/130w highs

I tried looking but I'm on my cell. How much are the norcal projectors?


Also, how would this be instead of the Norcal?

Mr. Pink

it depends do you think your capable of doing a retrofit like that?

92XJGuy

I'm willing to try and learn. It doesn't look too complicated. It's mostly cutting and making sure it all fits, no?

So stock xj lights Suck on output... Would swapping to these clear lenses help output?

No. They're crap. Upgrade your harness first, then some Autopal E codes.
