This is Gene Henderson's (of much Rally fame, ie One Lap of America etc)
company. He carrys all kinds of rally goodies.  I understand he found a
lamp manufaturer who was willing to make him a few thousand high power
bulbs to replace the stock wimpy 900x series.
If your 4000 (not really a 400 is it) takes a 9004 bulb (i think it does)
then these should work, the 80/100 watt versions may tax the wiring system.
Thats why Gene is selling the wiring kit, I suspect. It probably adds a relay.
I have some coming but they have not arrived yet, so I can't comment on how
well they work.
