Search Country Coach and scroll down until you reach headlights I think they are 350.00 for a set including the cornering light. I have not replaced mine but did retrofit HID bulbs into the existing lens after polishing out most, (some)?, of the scratches. The kit I used has an electro-magnetic solenoid to switch the single plasma bulb from low to high beam by physically repositioning the bulb. they are sold with only one power unit for both bulbs so I purchased an additional power unit to eliminate wiring runs from the single unit to both headlights, The additional cost is minimal. I found that I had to adjust my headlight aim and modify the aiming mechanism but I had repeatedly attempted to improve the headlight function by re-aiming and damaged the adjusters prior to installing the HID units. Bottom line is I have acceptable performing headlights, still not as good as I would like but I can see to drive on our dark roads and I am not having oncoming drivers “flash ” me. I believe that you would be happy with the 5000k temperature (color). I feel that installing HID’s in existing headlight assemblies delivers about 30% more light and retains the high-low function. My cost (Ebay) was less than $100.00 total and I have been running them for the last 14000 miles with significant night time use. Hid use has not caused any further deterioration to the Ford plastic units. I am happy with the modification.
