HID bulbs run at a very much higher voltage, require a special transformer and associate circuitry.
It is not feasible to confert an existing system to HID.
Sticking with halogen bulbs, there are a range of beam patterns and wattages available for your
system, but there's no "free lunch"...Higher wattage will only come at the cost of reduced run time.
