Just wondering if anybody knows how it's done? Got a bit of spare time and some pointers on what to do would be much appreciated.

there were full instructions on expedition portal forums - this is the link below, it was working the other day just not now so maybe keep checking it over the next few days to see when their forums come back up.

I converted my 220's to HID and it was an easy process.
Basically you need to drill out the heatsink to fit the new bulbs and wiring through and then use two screws or bolts to hold it in place.
This is mine.

oh ok so it is the same as for the lightforces. makes it easier to find. also does there need to be any extra drilling to run the wiring through them? thanks, chris.

yep you need to drill a bit hole out the back of the leg to get the plugs out - I filled the holes with silicon last and its still holding water tight. Just remember to seal the original wiring holes.

ok slight difficulty here. the plugs are too big to fit through the housing so I'm going to have to cut them n reattach them. Will that pose any problems? Also what are these HID adapter things for the Lightforces and where can I get them? That is, if they will do the Roolites too.
