Quartz-halogen (QH) upgrade. You'll need a set of H4 units, round or rectangular. In addition, preferably, to a relay. Xenon lights (HID or gas-discharge) isn't a simple change, as these use high voltages, nor is it cheap. Those blue lights you see in lots of cars are often just blue-coated QH bulbs, which are next to useless. And illegal in USA (not illegal here, unfortunatell). -- Andrew Grebneff Dunedin, New Zealand 64 (3) 473-8863 <andrew.grebneff@stonebow.otago.ac.nz> Fossil preparator Seashell, Macintosh & VW/Toyota van nut
