Maybe somebody already brought this up. But I finally found a decent
priced HID light kit and converted my halogen (H3) landing light. Got
a motorcycle conversion kit from eBay for $63 incl/shipping. For more

I am surprised to see that you mounted the light on the top of the
fuselage instead of the bottom.

If you raise the nose, the light will not illuminate the ground ahead of
you.

If you are in any fog/haze, the reflected light will totally kill your
night vision.
