I've been using IPF "High Output" 55/60 W replacement bulbs on my S13 for the past 8 years without any issue. No special or upgraded wiring required. Will definitely do it again on my 62.

Thank you for the recommendation I just made my order from DS. Can't wait to get them installed.Ok so I finally got around to photographing the results from the new headlights. These are Koitos from DS. Great set of lights and you can switch the bulbs when needed. Its all in the lenses (housing) anyways I guess? Also upgraded the wiring harness to an IPF relay harness. Loving the results. Started to adjust them according to multiple lighting people. Hopefully Im doing it right. haha

I do recall reading, possibly in this thread, a warning about using LED's in very cold weather and their not having as much output as they do when temps are more 'normal'. Don't know if this has been addressed in later designs or not.
Correct, I finally understand that. My point being is the switching polarity around has already been done after I blew out my highbeam switch by just plugging in the Hellas. Now my concern is if I need to undue those mods to go with a standard H4 such as the Sylvania Ultra everyone has been bragging about at the local shops here.Correct, an incandescent H4 will drop in with no problems at 55/60W, if you use a LED or HID system you need to mess with switching polarity which is easy with a small inline module.
You do realize those are almost $40 more than MSRP from any Toyota dealer?
Boggles my mind what people fall for these days.
Sorry I know this is an old post, but wondering how/where to order these upgraded headlights for my BJ60.Hella, IPF, Cibie all make a H-4 E-code headlight with a much better beam pattern. you can upgrade the bulbs from 55/60 to higher ONLY if you upgrade the wiring harness. But I bet you would be very pleased with a pair of H-4's even with 55/60watts.
I run IPF's myself in 5 Cruisers......I LOVE em.
