HI guys, I've been running H4's on both my Jeep (Black Betty) and my black 81 Econoline panel van (Easy Bake) for serval years in the latter's case. While the twin relayed system w/14 gauge wiring has been serving okay these days it seems the bulbs don't last so long that I put down as lack of manufacturing acumen. So I'm considering outfitting Easy Bake with a Bi Xenon 55w 6000k conversion kit.
Has anyone any experience with these conversions? Are there makers/sellers that are good and others to avoid?

Thanks and a lift of the lynch lid for any responses

Gus

 

Try to order off a reputable site. You get what you pay for when it comes to the Ebay kits, most of the time they don't work. Case in point, I could only get one ballast on my truck to work, the other wouldn't turn on. So I'll save my money for a better made kit when I switch to one piece projector headlights.

 

i put a cheap ebay kit in the hyundai, one bulb was bad but both ballasts worked, tried to get the seller to ship me a new bulb, gave up, ran a halogen on that side for awhile, ordered another pair of bulbs off ebay, got it all working again, then the control box went out because it wasn't sealed from moisture. a quick redneck fix had it back in action but without hi-low function.

so at the end of the day, a cheap kit is just cheap. a more reputable kit should give you good results.

i find it noteworthy that my van with simple old sealed beams shines more usuable light than the car does, even after the HID conversion and the aftermarket fog lights i added.
