Led Headlights for my Jk
Well after 3 years of living with the wonderful jk headlights, I decided enuff was enuff. I researched this for a while and found these from JW Speaker.
These are a very very well built piece of kit. On the TJ they are an easy install, on the JK you have to deal with the CANBUS issues. They shipped out today I will post pics of them when they arrive and how to overcome the CANBUS issues. http://www.jwspeaker.com/images/265.jpg Product List Model Number Description 8700-12V 12V LED High/Low Headlight 8700-24V 24V LED High/Low Headlight 8700-12/24V 12-24V LED High/Low Headlight Features & Benefits 1,050-1,350 Raw Lumens; 500-760 Effective Lumens Available in 12V DC, 24V DC, or 12-24V DC configurations Durable glass lens stands up to harsh environmental conditions Rugged solid state LEDs can withstand shock & vibration Long-lasting LEDs mean never having to replace another bulb again!

What are those worth?

Re: Led Headlights for my Jk
Well they are a little on the expensive side, but as with anything you get what you pay for. They are bright with great cut off and have very low amp draw. They are submersible, dust proof and cool looking. The Lens is also replaceable separately, for like 20 bucks or something. I have talked to truckers who have few years on them and love them.
You can contact JW Speaker directly on the web site or call the guy I got them from Bear at BearTrax 4x4 Outfitters at (780)651-1621. He can set you up or tell you where to get them where you live. I am gonna need some advice when they come in on how to get around the CANBUS on the JK. On the TJ they are an easy install he has TJ's running them allready. They will be here next week and I will post up all the info I can get so you guys can judge the quality for yourselves. |

Attachment 4143 Attachment 4144 Attachment 4145 Sorry about the crappy pics, the digital camera at the shop I work at suks (it gets used by the techs a lot for warranty stuff). The install come next and I will post all the pics for the full install and a bunch of comparisons to the stock lights. |
Re: Led Headlights for my Jk
Hey guys if you want a set or pricing on these cotact John Walker at walkerj@jwspeaker.com. He is the guy I talked to. The prices I see on the net are for either heavy truck or Harleys and working in the Industry i can tell you that people that own either get raped, on almost everything they buy for those units. Talk to John and he will set you up with a place to get these.
