The IPF lights can be found at rocky-road.com



I've got the round ones on my FB-very impressive but illegal to be sure.

i'm sorry but i must ask the question because i never picked it up in past threads. but plz explain the differences in standard halogen, h4, xenon, and hid lights. and sunshine keeps refering to 'conversion.' is this because you must replace the bulb and the bulb housing for the specific upgrade?

ok i did some reading, i'm leaning away from the halogens and want to find out what some hid types are going for. maybe some xenons are the best way to go.

you cant put HIDs in your headlights...i mean maybe with the conversion to a plastic housing...but after a month or so the HID with probably melt the inferior plastic housing.



I'd say go with a housing conversion which switches it frmoa sealed beam to a plastic type of housing with a hole in the back to simply replace bulbs, generally h4's.



Then get the brightest H4's they have in the auto parts store.



it'll be a lot brighter.

haha yep, i did a bit more reading and it looks like i'm going to go with a different housing liek you said. my question now is if i buy the hella conversion setup from phins, will it support an h4 bulb?
