    At the end of the day they (either the Xtremevisions or their Osram equivalent) are the best you can get out of your headlights without either going to overwattage bulbs and a wiring upgrade or HIDs and projectors - so they are definitely worth it.
    Thanks Red. I might put a set in the KL too then.

    Okay...I'm confused. In a standard TJ headlight assembly is there only an H4 bulb or an H4 and H1?

    In a standard one there is a H4 on the outer side and a H1 on the inner side of the light. But if you have the Parrabolic lights that are on the Verada, VRX, Sports and some others then they use a H7 for the outer and a H1 for the inner

    And to confuse you further, T/KL and T/KW series use H4 and H1 and they are all parabolics.

    Fitted H7R HID bulbs to my TJ Sports Wagon today - had to make a spacer from some large metal washers to pad out the thickness of the base to match the H7-H4 adapter that the factory lights use, must say it just about removes all the shadows that I had encountered with the verada style reflector and doing the alignment as per the workshop manual there doesn't seem to be any bad shine above the cutoff line, also the ballasts fit beautifully inside the wings just behind the headlights. These were only 35W version too, much improved, now the fog lights look yellow.... and high beam is errr - yellow....

    I'm in a bit of a state of confusion myself about this...

    Bought myself a set of H4 and H1 Narva Plus 100s today for my TL VR-X and, following the obligatory washer bottle removal, discovered that the high beam bulb in there is a H7.
