Will do. I bought them early November, and they've been good so far. The
only problem I've had is that I think I got a bit overzealous in my
headlight adjustments.... got em too low now (but it's still much better
than before). I'm slowly tweaking them up to get them right again.

I've also got a 2002 Hyundai Elantra GT, and I have to say that, even with
the new Silverstars on the Jeep, the stock Hyundai lights are still
better... I've been impressed there... of course, now I'm out on the Hyudai
NG looking for replacements there... got a fog light out... I really don't
want to replace those with weak lights like those that came with the Jeep.
I've already seen the dark side... don't want to go back. I might find
something good there that could apply here...
