What did you pay for your headlight upgrade?

[Johnnie Walker]

I would start with an upgraded harness. The LMC truck harness I have in my XJ currently is actually for a dual light setup. I just have the main plugs connected to my single housings on each side. Then I guess find H4/other housings that fit. I would like to hopefully get a waggy or 97-up header panel for my MJ, if I get a waggy front I will swap my current harness over and make a new one for my XJ.

This is something I have always wanted to do since i swapped this front clip, the problem is what the hell kinda headlights work in this set up?

Looks good.

Check out candlepower for bulbs. A while back they had a sale on the Narva off road bulbs which was very nice as one of mine had burned out.

Looks like the AutoPals are available in two styles: The standard E code, or the "Euro Diamond" style. I like the look of the Diamond style, but am concerned about the pattern. Anyone here have experience with these?

Thanks!

Anything that is plastic, has Diamond or Crystal in the name/description, or looks car show cool, will be money wasting junk.

Housings really don't matter when using projectors. Just buy any cheap housings, cut the back off and jb weld the projector in. Be sure it's sealed. If you're not comfortable with wiring and "making" things, find someone to help.

About $220 total for an OEM fit, super bright high performance setup for on and off road in most any conditions. A solid value upgrade in safety, durability, and driving pleasure.

Resurrecting this old thread....

How do you know which one's are the 'E-codes' ?

 

[Tim_MN]

Look for seller ID rimiinc on eBay. He calls them Euro Conversion. There will be an E inside a circle molded into the face of the lamp housing. DOT approved or Diamond are not E-code, don't have the circle E, and are not what you want.

Approximately $70. I upgraded to Projectors. Did it myself. It's just NOT that hard.

 

[Green XJ Jeep]

Sylvania Silverstars and $20 ebay headlight harness. So maybe $60

^Did the same except I bought my harness from LMC truck. Not sure what I spent but the difference over the original setup was worth every penny plus another $100. What was Jeep thinking??
