To HID or not? (Spotlights)

QuartzIodine is what they were first called.
Then Thorn managed to produce the H4 and started to call them Halogen.
I have an original H1 plastic holder that the bulbs were supplied in when bought new.

There cheap enough off flebay , maybe you could get the right bulbs and pop them in the spotlights :?

Could you give me more info on this please.
I've just knackered a pair of Hell headlights so I'm looking to change.
HID could be the way to go but Hella told me that I needed all the bits.

Sorry to put a spanner in the works, but if it is H1, H4, H7, whatever, they are not HID. Many dealers in ebay sell their "ultra bright blue lights" as HIDs, which is at the very least, misadvertising.

Obviously you've not seen my headlights , anybody with a little bit of knowledge would know the difference between HID and halogen just by looking at the bulb .
Also HID come in any bulb type you may need .
And last but not least my H4 lights are HID .
