Those look killer, Harpie! Nicely done. Have you wired the pigtail in yet?

Could you post the part number? Been looking at headlights this past week, trying to decide what to get.

Thank you I have not wired it in yet truck isn't far enough along but shouldn't be hard. I don't have the part number but 07-14 will do the trick I got mine off of ebay cheap! Lots of jeep folks swapping them out for the new led replacements so not hard to locate a set. If needed I can take one back off and get you a number and the factory trim ring fits perfect.

So just the housing and bulb are all you needed? That sounds really cool.

Combining this with the relay upgrade would make for fantastic lighting.

Yes sir. I went with an oem jeep jk headlight with factory bulb and pigtail. You can get some aftermarket ones but the quality just was not as good. The bulb is an exact size to the factory truck sealed beam bulb. And yes I am gonna run the upgraded harness for the most light I can get and ya could always put a brighter bulbs in the housing and they make a nice hid kit for jeep that someone could also install in the factory housing if ya wanted to go that route.

Those look great! What kind of wiring modifications need to be done?

Only thing you hafta have are the pigtails for the jeep lights. But I would do the upgrade harness that uses relays etc to give you plenty of power to the lights. You can find that using the search feature up top it's been covered a bunch. When I actually get to wire mine up that's what I plan on doing.
