    I bought the IPF housings and bulbs and have been very happy with the purchase. They are very bright and the light color is great, to avoid buying the very high priced harness, I bought High heat plugs and made my own system, the original leads now power relays that run 10 gauge wire fused but direct to the IPF bulbs. So this means my 1992 wiring harness only sees a few milliamps to power the new relays and should last a long time. It does put a little redundancy into the system but with such a small load I am hoping the original relays can last for years to come. Some say my XJ is really an electrical engineering project. LOL

    Got the Putco harness, Hella housings and 55/100 bulbs installed today....nice.



    Major improvement at night, the low beams with the sharp cut-off really makes the high-beams not needed as much....I did a little driving around the farm and found the low beams to be the preferred unless I was trying to see distance.
