Xenon headlight bulbs?

[Interceptor97]

I was just wondering if anyone had an opinion on the Xenon HID headlight bulbs. Are they legal in all states?
Also: what are the pro's and con's of the Xenon bulbs?
Are they recommended for use in the CVp1 1997?

Thanks,

I'd like to get some HID's on my 93 p71

Be prepared to buy a couple of headlight assemblies. The HID's and Xenon bulbs are much brighter, but also produce quite a bit of excess heat. We had deputies complaining about headlights not bright enough at night. The boss, in his stupidity, ordered some Xenon bulbs, and I was told to install them. Since police vehicles are run for eight hours minimum, at a shift, the headlight assemblies promptly melted. New headlight assemblies: $100 apiece. (Note: HID's are much brighter, but give off a LOT more heat, beware)

Thanks for the advise. I will stick with the standard bulbs.
