Here was the auction. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... gory=33710
I ended up paying like 50 bucks total with the additional bulbs. No balist just a relay for the running lights and the H4's run off your stock wiring that I have yet to do some more wiring with additional relays like Heep and other have added. I have the write up Heep sent me if your interested in it I can forward it to you if you PM me with an email. :wink: They are alot brighter than stock, even my dad was pretty impressed. But I'm figuring with the extra relays and the higher watt bulb that I ordered with them they should be lookin like some lights on a Lexus. :lol:

Thank's 460 crew but I already have the relays on mine with some xtra vision lights but I would really like to change my head lights with ones that use the H4 bulb.

For the price they sell for you might try them and if you don't like them I'm sure someone here would take them off your hands. :hmm:

I just saw LMC sells a harness that has stock connectors but has the relays wired in and everything for 29 bucks, hopefully just swap out the old with the new with a couple new holes.

I grabbed one of these, but I'm going to end up taking it apart and using Bosch relays instead of the "Shori" ones supplied. Supposedly the harness is good for 90/100w bulbs.
