The kits are designed for the PAR36 form factor light. Any PAR36 light will fit right in including the Whelen lights. I have sold many to 14 and 10 drivers. Larger form factors like the PAR46 will NOT fit the kit and would require significant modification.

I stuck PAR36 HIDs in mine and it wasn't a drop in mount. The aluminum they supply is fairly thin and flimsy, and the hole in the back half of the bracket is oversized...not 4" like the PAR36. So, if you want to sandwhich a PAR36 bulb, you have to rework things. I took the front ring and duplicated it on .063, to give a better front light bulb ring. Then used their supplied ring as a hole reducer for the back bracket. So unless you use their suggested lighting, you may end up having to tweak it a bit. With some work though you should be able to get any PAR36 bulb to fit.
