There is a guy on here that makes an aftermarket grill and his product let's your run a round headlight.
I can't remember his name but here is a link to his website.

To answer your question about wiring there is a connector/adapter that goes between the new lights and stock harness. I think it was for a Honda. I’ll see if I can find the link.

Who is this guy? In post #3 you can see that he has two people hanging upside down from the wall!
Whats going on?

@KTP Besides the adaptor that i got ( adapter) I also chopped them up and spliced in some waterproof relays ( Relays ) so that turning on my low beams didn't activate my high beams. Not expensive just have to bend your mind around it.
thats the best my memory has on the diagram which is what i am guessing you were hoping for.

They told him he had a nice Jeep. What happened next was totally justified!
It took some relays. I think I posted a wiring diagram on @kelly saad ’s post introducing his 7” round housings.

Thank you, I did install one of Kelly's Grilles and love my new look. My issue is connecting two connectors( High & Low) into one H4 connection. came with the connectors BUT! both high & low come on when you turn on the lights. presently I have my highs unplugged till this gets figured out., Did this same mod to my son's 100 but it only has one bulb.

Your Diagram of the two relays is blocked by your Photobucket label.....Thank you for this as i'm going insane in the membrane.
I like the grills - but hate the round lights. Sorry to say .

I love the round but I’m not a purist. The light output is so much better than even the best bulbs I could find for the stock housings.
It’s been quite awhile since I did this conversion, and the 70’s were not kind to my memory.
This looks like the original source of the diagram. But to be honest, I’d have to refigure it out from scratch to be sure.

Wiring for bulb type conversion - diagrams I used and final harness created, uses relays, as previously mentioned.
