Can HID/Xenon headlights be put in older XK8?
Hi,
From what I remember, the XKR's came with HID headlights. Can a set of these be bolted into an older 2000 XK8 and made to work? Other than finding a place to mount the ballasts, it seems like it should be pretty straightforward? Any information would be appreciated. Thank you.

I would see no reason why it wouldnt work, just putting the Xenon bulbs in and mounting the ballast somewhere safe. Since Xenon uses less wattage than Halogen, wiring is also a non-issue.
I might be doing this someday with mine, so I'd be interesed if anyone disagrees.
