Has anyone been able to find any good HID or Xenon replacment bulbs for the Daytime Running lights on a 2005 H2?

Also could use a Wiring harness for the Off Road lights on the Grille and over head one, the grille one has 2x6" OEM lights and the over head is 4 x 6" OEM HUmmer ones too, bought both off of Craig's List but got no wiring harness and I really do not want to, if possible have to hard wire them in.

Just replaced the bulbs. I think these are about $20 at a performance store. Very easy install and a great look. I think I posted a picture somewhere on this site. I am very pleased with the new look.

I have seen a post on this site that references a PIAA kit to covert the DRL's to HID. Can't find it right now though. Check out PIAA's website they may have it listed. I know when I looked it was not cheap.

I have a set of LED's installed for the DRL's also. I don't think they are brighter than stock but they are much whiter.
If anyone is interseted you can check them out on ebay. A bunch of people sell them but here is1 example:

I put ambers in the DRL's and I love the look with the cab lights on. I didn't go with the LED, cause I have read that even though the bulbs quote a long life, they don't last very long, so I dind't think it was worth the trouble.
