Hella FF1000 Converted HID With Hella 6054 H4 HID
I found a set of Hella FF1000 on ebay for $100 and converted to HID with tips from Rock Slide! And a set of headlights from Hella made them HID too here the pics

Wow that is bright! Hurt my eyes just looking at the pictures
. Nice work.
Just remember, if your HID ballasts get even the smallast bit of water in them, they'll short out. I know b/c I am on my 2nd set of ballasts. I thought the cases were better sealed than there were, but when I took them apart, I quickly found out there were not.
If you have not already sealed them, it would be a good idea to. I disassembled my ballasts and sealed each metal case with a bead of clear RTV silicone. I also shot some clear RTV at each connection point where the ballasts plug into the bulbs and where the wiring plugs into the ballasts. Just something to think about.

No not at all it was pretty simple. It only takes about 30 mins. Drill a hole for the ballast, plug the HID buld hide the wires and test before you put the grille.
Here the headlights only

And All 4 lights

I love them worth every pennie!

Looks great. Do you have the HID kit in only the added Hella lights, or the headlights too? If just the Hella lights, it's fine to have a "blind me" kit because you *should never* have them on when traffic is coming towards you, or if there are vehicles in front of you.
I would seal those ballasts, I have heard of them shorting out if water gets inside. I potted my ballasts for my HID retrofit, look here: https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f28/...ogress-155478/
