Converting KC halogens to HID.

[Mark W]

My '80s will be getting Depos with HID projector upgrades toward that end. For long range I am fitting them with 7 inch (halogen) aircraft landing lights (loose spot/tight driving beam pattern).

Tons of great tech info in here about automotive lighting. Everything I've done as far as mods I've considered I've run by Dan first to see if it was a good idea or not. Some have been, some haven't. He recently gave me some great ideas to improve the OEM headlights and fog lights of our 3rd generation Avalon. The man knows his s***. Read all the tech info on his web site, and if you've got any more questions about HID conversions, retrofits, or anything lighting, he responds pretty quickly to emails.

Ok so this has been wandering off a little bit.

To clarify, I have spot (Pencil) beams. I use them to punch as far as I can because my high beams with high performance bulbs give me enough spread.

The lights are NOT sealed beams, they use H3 bulbs. Any help with the H3 HID conversions??

About the only place you can order Cibie 7" headlights too.

I ordered a 55W HID conversion off EBay AU
and converted my IPF XS900.. Pretty simple conversion with slimline internal ballast... Pic is with my low beams and the HID IPF .... Crazy bright

this it's the part that keep me from doing it .. since I'm not sure if I just throw some HID on my Warn or Bosh lamps will keep it ..

Found these at a TruckStop a number of months ago....projectors in a rectangular housing look pretty sick, and with an HID conversion the cut-off line will be perfect.

Not a huge fan of the 6-LED's around the outer edge though.

guess you can avoid the LED part connection .. but the projector looks awesome good ..

Can you recall the brand ..

Edit: found 'em ...

another Edit .. kinda long

wonder if they will work with Hi low HID kits ..

Yep! That's them! They also have a 7" round set with the led around the edge...looks kinda cool.

The Iowa-80 Truckstop has em...they were a bit less spendy, but they can't ship em to ya like Amazon
