The vision plus is what you need for DOT standards, it uses an HB4 bulb. 60/55w bulb, just need the make the connections to the old connector (they will tell you, its also on the site)

Just like i said, those are not DOT legal. Ecode lights are great (thats what i have), but they might get you in trouble.
I had the silverstars from kragens in mine prior, they were pretty good.
Hella makes some bitchin lights though

HID lighting uses Gas-discharge arc lighting.
The H4s use a standard filament.
HID puts out more usable light (3600lumens vs 1600lumens)
H4 is cheaper ($100-200 vs $600+)
HID uses less OVERALL power, like 3 amps once warmed, but uses about 15 AMPS on startup.
H4 is usually constant at 7 or so amps (60 watts)
