    Very nice. Do they put off a lot of light ? Someone told me those and the KC Highlights Gravity Pros were the top two I should look into. Have you heard anything about the KC’s ?

    Most of the LED head lights marketed will be much better than the OEM glow beams but its important to properly aim them. Got a deal on the JWs otherwise it would have been any of the others I mentioned. KCs have good reviews too.

    I have the JWs. Absolutely love'em. Noticed the difference first time night drivin. I know their tough on the Jeep allowance. But as aggrex mentioned. You can find them on sale. And most distributors will price match, if ya have a favorite you buy from.
    Far as the other brands mentioned. I have no experience or input to offer.

    Ive been running the Quadratec headlights for about 5 years now, and am happy with them. Running the JW Speaker fog lights, and those are great lights!

    I also have Quadratec and they were a huge upgrade to my candles. My brother @Rc Jeep has JW’s and they are even better than my Quadratec but also roughly twice the cost.

    Thanks to @aggrex post some time back. They had JWs fog lights on sale. Quadratec price matched Northridges sale price.

    Black Friday may have some specials running from the online venders. Might want to check out Quadratec for their new heated LED headlights. But the value will be in QT standard LED headlights.
