Tri-Xenon

I've been running Bi-Xenon Projectors in my Jeep for 3 years now (HID runs in low and high
beam via an actuator in the projector that adjusts the beam pattern ). Recently I added OEM
Fit foglight projectors straight from Germany. I had them body-matched at the bodyshop so
that everything blends in properly. Just thought I'd share...

The parts: Tri-Xenon HID Retrofit:
- XP6054 Bi-Xenon Projectors
- AL Bosch Ballasts/ 5400k Osram Xenarc Bulbs
- Vestatec German Import Projector foglights
- 5000k H3C Mini HID conversion

Here are some pics of my HID kit

Re: Tri-Xenon

I paid less than a grand, but that's because I tormented the guy from suvlights.com for a very long time (well before these lights were even manufactured); I think he just got tired of dealing with me, so he cut me a deal. I got the headlights and wiring harness for $500. I scored brand new ballasts/ bulbs separately on ebay for $150 (courtesy a Cadillac SRX).

He hasn't cut anyone a deal since.

Re: Tri-Xenon

I notice you have no side marker lights on the header panel. Did you buy it that way or glass it up yourself?

Re: Tri-Xenon

I had the header panel shaved at the bodyshop; I had the signal
markers replaced with hella repeaters courtesy a Mercury Mariner.

I never liked the signal marker position in the 97+ XJ... they're just
stranded in the middle of nowhere. I prefered the headlight cluster
in the older XJs. This was my way of cleaning up the exterior while
keeping things legal.

Re: Tri-Xenon

Looks great. I always though the housings would stick way out like bug eyes, but they seem to blend pretty well. Take some more output shots!

I said suvlights.com sells them in post 3. I even mentioned the price.

unfortunately they protrude past the header panel. It was the only way to fit a PROPER set of projectors into
the headlight without cutting into the header panel itself. Here's a pic of the design schematic.
