For the price, these are amazing!
I was originally going to get the JW Speaker lights but the price was just too high for me ($700 for a pair) so after looking at the alternatives, I decided on these. I must say, I'm very impressed! Pros: -Looks: these lights look slick. The blacked out housing really makes a statement compared to the highly reflective silver of the stock lights. -Price: literally a bargain compared to 99% of the other options out there -Brightness: these are extremely bright lights, unless you are on completely unlit back roads you probably won't need to use your high beams -Ease of Instillation: very easy to install, they did require a bit of modification on the passenger side but more on that later. -Built in anti-flicker resistor: unlike 99% of the other cheaper LED's on the market, there's no bulky anti-flicker harness you have to cram behind the light. -Decent quality adapter: I know some of the other reviews mention that the plug adapter wouldn't work properly but I had no issues with mine. It clicked into the OEM plug with no drama, I did wrap the connections with electrical tape just to be cautious but it isn't necessary. -Heavy, well built housing: I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the heat sink/housing on this light. It's cast aluminum with a black powder coat finish. I couldn't find any noticeable defects or flaws. -Well sealed: I installed these right before we had literally 3 straight weeks of rain and thunderstorms. My jeep sits in my driveway with no protection from the elements, and was also driven heavily during this time. No condensation or water inside the lens. Cons: -The passenger side light did require a bit of grinding to fit in my '18 JK sport, literally took a total of about 10 mins to grind down a few of the cooling fins and spray it with some spray paint to cover the exposed metal. If you dont have access to tools, I could see this being a bigger issue. - The lenses are made of polycarbonate, and as such will scratch easier than the OEM lights. Just something to keep in mind if you're going to be going on overgrown trails. And a quick public service announcement: TAKE SOME TIME AND PROPERLY AIM YOUR HEADLIGHTS AFTER INSTILLATION!!! I think LED/HID lights have recieved an unfair bad reputation for being 'blindingly bright' because numbskulls think that as long as their factory lights were aimed properly, there's no need to aim the new lights... WRONG! I spent about 20 mins to get them aimed and dispite them being extremely bright, I haven't been flashed once by oncoming traffic since I installed them. There's plenty of tutorials on YouTube on how to do it, PLEASE do everyone a favor and spend the extra 15-20 mins to make sure you're lights are aimed properly. I'd highly recommend these lights to anyone not looking to spend a fortune on headlights for their jeep. These are a great value and seem to be solidly built. I'll update this review should anything happen down the road to these lights.
