I think that there may be some confusion here. Could be on my part, but as I've been reading this thread, there seems to be a lack of distinction of what's being referred to.
The 4-HI mod is not the same as an HD headlight harness. Seperate entities, but the 4-Hi can be combined into the HD harness. They can be used seperately but, probably should be used in conjunction with each other.
I don't have HD harness yet, but I am using the 4-Hi mod.
I have not converted to HID's, but I do have a shelf full of 9005/9006 halogens bulbs which I have tried & been disappointed with. So far, the best halogen bulbs that I've found are called 'EuroDezigns'. Super white with no blue tinge. Nice wide pattern.
But, (BUT!!!) while those bulbs give a very nice light to drive behind, when I pulled the housings to re-seal them (condensation) I found that the heat of the EuroDezigns bulbs have bubbled the chrome inside the housing right above the bulb itself. Aaaarrrggghhh!!!
Also...I've found that the H/L switch gets pretty darn hot. Probably due to using a 4-Hi mod with the stock harness. I carry a second H/L switch as a back-up in the console, just in case. So, when I can afford it, I will be purchasing Baron's HD harness, & converting to HID's.
Once you see a 4-Hi wiring kit, you'll see that they are pretty simple to make up yourself, but unless you have one right there to duplicate exactly, the time involved to scratch build one...well, my time is better spent doing what I know best. I can make more $$$ in the same time, so it works out cheaper just to purchase one. And, I might as well spend that $$$ wisely and get a kit that I know is gonna work right the first time, everytime.
Baron's stuff works. It's over-built. He has a proven track record, both here & on ebay. In all my dealings with him, (My blue truck was the guinea pig for the foglight harness. I have the first one.) he has provided quality components at a fair price, & delivered on time. I've never met him personally, but I am very comfortable recommending his products & services.
