You have the HID headlight with the halogen high beam. To use the kit you would have to make some wiring changes to bypass your existing ballast.

Since you already have HIDs, why do you want to change to the kit?

Hello CTScott,
I do not have any knowledge about this stuff, I even didnt knew it that I already have HID :D
I have been told that if i get this HID kit, i will have much brighter light and i purchased it.
do you think that with this 55w HID ballast kit i will have more light? if yes, i can do the wire changes if you guide me.

Thank you in advance for your help.

I think it will be identical to what you have now, as I believe that the Toyota 90981-20009 HID bulb is a 55W bulb as well. Also, the aftermarket ballast with your kit will not be 1/2 as reliable as the OEM Toyota ballast.

If you still want to do the conversion, I recommend getting a set of non-HID headlights and using those with the kit. You could then sell those OEM HID headlights for a significant price.
