I don't know if it would work, but I'd just suggest getting XENON present turned on.

I'd advise against it. I know a lot of people do PNP but the more I see it the more ricer it looks to me. I know I've not been a lot of help on what you're looking for, but I think in the long run you'll be better off with a retrofit or finding some OEM headlamps.
