Re: LED headlights (7" round)

I have some likey in the second link on my tj and they are bright! I had a set of "good" hid projectors on a prior truck and they outshine them Considerably.

I have thought of upgrading the headlights in my truck as well but because of this I have just stuck with the regular stock headlights. Just a thought.
Trucklite has a built in heating element on the lens to address this. Cool stuff.

I have been having issues with ice forming on my head lights with my LED's I'm running. I just gently scrape the ice off. The last time I priced the truklite ones they were still north of $400. I have half that in the ones I have right now and they are plenty bright but not blinding. So much better than stock.
