HID headlights for "97

[hulk311]

I searched this whole forum and find nothing!

I would like to install HID headlights on my 97 4Runner. I already know where to get the HID kits themselves, my question is, where and what kind of headlight or projector to get? I have only been able to find a 99 model headlight replacement from burtman ind. is this my best bet? For those of you that installed HIDs on your 3rd gen what kind of headlights did you use?

Is your current headlight lens textured, where it's not completely clear? If so, consider a retrofit, because there will be a tremendous amount of glare. Textured headlight lenses create the beam pattern, not the reflector. If you have a dual filament (single bulb per side) setup, you will want to look for Bi-Xenon projectors to keep your highbeam functionality.
