A little tip for working with silicone: put a dab of liquid dish soap on your finger then run it along the silicone and you can smooth it out without it sticking to your finger. 👍🙂
My 14 WK2 came with the original upgraded HID headlights , and I love them especially the LED running daylight , the only I worried was when the LED strip daylight would die or stop working , since it’s a a none replaceable part and u would have to buy an entire headlight, the only option was OEM or the missimmoto and those run over a $1,000 bucks , I checked your link and I was shocked , surprised at the price of $390 for the set , now I know if I ever need to replace mines to get these at a very low price
Did you watch the video? 😂 You have the option to turn the animation off if you’d like The blue only comes on with the animation. They have been holding up great so far. Seems to be a common theme with people not being able to get the high beams to work correctly. Still trying to get to the bottom of it. I heard someone found a fix for it
Just picked me up a 2021 5.7 Trailhawk ! Super stoked bought 2nd hand with only 28k on her this will be my 3rd Grand Cherokee my first was a 95 with the 5.2 lifted it with 3’’ suspension on 33’s 2nd one was 2012 srt 8 threw a Maggy 2.9 on with all the bells and whistles had that for a solid 5yrs bar none the most fun and brutally unfair performance vehicle I’ve ever had! And this before Trackhawk came out so it was just nasty. Fast forward 2018 built me a Rubicon Recon edition Jk long arm king coilovers the whole nine had fun with that. Now it’s all about slowin my roll a bit grabbed this Trailhawk and exited to upgrade this girl and make her a tough good lookin daily that’ll do it all ! Love the Grand Cherokee platforms up to 2021. Don’t know about this next gen but they don’t look to promising.
Oh yea you’ve had them all. Yea I’m not too sure about the WL. The manufacturer really likes that air suspension haha. Stay tuned though I got a little surprise for the build.
Those are dope 😎 they look good on yur WK2. Been thinking about doing it to mine but I still like the old school look. You may have changed my mind tho lol
Great non-tutorial! 😂 I believe this might depend on whether your WK2 had them to begin with, but the spacer actually has a washer module built in - which explains the cut out in the middle of it - that sprays the housing to clean it. I've never seen it in action so I have no idea how it actually works, but that's my understanding. It's the precursor to the remodeled ones which remove the spacer in favor of the grille that matches the contour of the lights, but where you'll notice the little square cutout under the light. Also, I'm likely to get the Morimotos largely because i really want the LEDs for night driving. I was disappointed how dim the HIDs were when I got my 2014 (even after replacing the bulbs). Yours looks dope though, a great alternative!
@@iamkevinmccarthy thanks. I’ve had the morimotos in my cart for almost a year but I just couldn’t justify it. But now I see they came out with another set that’s more like these and less expensive
I've been looking at these for awhile but was worried about how'd they look and if they would actually fit and look. Glad you did it for us all to see them. Definitely looking forward to an update on these down the road. Really wish they had an option for green drl though.
I have these on you my 2014 limited. They made a huge difference in looks and function. I do want to stop the startup animation because they may fail inspection in my state so thank you for giving that lil tidbit on turning those off.
@@AutomotiveCentral_AC I just put it in the DRL slot but you can use the cigar fuse too. And I haven’t figured out the highbeams. I never use them so I didn’t think to check. Then people told me theirs didn’t work and when I tried mine, sure enough they don’t work. But someone messaged me saying they may have the fix but I’m still waiting to hear back
Honestly the piggy back still has me stumped. I thought it was for the DRL but the DRL still works without it. And yes it connects to both lights then to the fuse box. I can’t remember which fuse slot but I think I said it in the video.
Thanks. I haven’t had the stock lights in for a couple years. They were scratched when I got the Jeep. But these lenses are a lot better than my last lights
Wassup my Braddah as usual nice upgrade to your Jeep! Cuzin! You gotta get some cordless impacts etc....lol make things easier and faster.......as always, Love and Aloha my Braddah!!!
@@gabrielagomez2140 it seems to be a problem. Mine too it seems. I’m waiting on a response from them. I was going to mention it in my next video. I don’t know if it’s an adjustment thing or what but you’re not the first to talk about this.
@@Sir_Galahad777 I plan to but I want to play with it first because when I hit my brights it looks like it’s doing something but it’s really low. So I’m wondering if it needs to be adjusted up.

@@simcptmike nice!!! Thanks for
Figured out the high beams. It’s the polarity. Flip the plug for the high beams. It works now.
Been wanting to upgrade my 15 halogen lights and this video just cleared everything up. Thanks for the install video! Looks great
@@rrodfixrguydude glad I could nudge you haha. Appreciate it
They look epic! Definitely want to hear how they hold up after doing some trails and going through some water.
Thanks. Well this weekend looks pretty wet here in WA so we’ll find out! Haha
They look real good...
Thank you. I think they are a nice touch for sure
I just ordered these for my 2015 GC and will install them this weekend! Thank you for the tutorial! I learned a lot & will save me some headaches!
@@kevinkaviani1922 let me know if your high beams don’t work I heard it has been an issue but someone messaged me telling me they have the fix for it.
They look dope af
Thanks fam
Looks really good.

Yes I was shocked too and to have such good reviews. I will do a long term update on them
Dope vid🔥
How they holding up?
When does the blue come on?
Can you turn off the animation?
Did you watch the video? 😂
You have the option to turn the animation off if you’d like
The blue only comes on with the animation.
They have been holding up great so far. Seems to be a common theme with people not being able to get the high beams to work correctly. Still trying to get to the bottom of it. I heard someone found a fix for it
I was just wondering what happened to your buddy with the wj ?? Love the look the new lights gave it.
Thanks. His Jeep was down for a while. But he’s back. We are headed out tomorrow actually

@@Night_Fury_jk you bet. Yes that would be dope to be able to change the colors
Speaking of tires... what did you go with? And what about the lift. Sweet ride!
After this video I have now switched to nitto trail grapplers in 35x11.5 on 17x8 defiant wheels

Nah... Va
@@markmczeal7432not illegal on start up
@@Sir_Galahad777 thanks for letting me know
Which fuse did you hook them too… and also, do your bright beams work?

@ okay thank you!!! Getting mine soon!
Great choice 👊🏿💯
Appreciate it. I’m happy with them so far
Is there a way to disable or turn off the start up animation
Yes. It is in the directions. There are certain wires you can unplug to disable it
G HOW'S THE SILICONE holding up,any condensation?
Zero my friend. Rain/water crossings/ mud. She’s still clean and clear
thanks for showing us , but whats the piggy light for again? and is for both lights that come with that wire? and what exac fuse box does it go to?
Honestly the piggy back still has me stumped. I thought it was for the DRL but the DRL still works without it. And yes it connects to both lights then to the fuse box. I can’t remember which fuse slot but I think I said it in the video.
Did the unit came with a bulb pre-installed?
Yes. All set to go
I’m curious to see what it looks like at night time? The brightness?
Hit me up on IG @grand_exploration and I’ll make a reel for you
That looks great! Black on black on black, what’s number of them? Vland? 👍🏼
Thanks! Yea I like them. Yes Vland. About $500
those looks really good man , hows the lense .. an upgrade over the stock lenses?
Thanks. I haven’t had the stock lights in for a couple years. They were scratched when I got the Jeep. But these lenses are a lot better than my last lights
Wassup my Braddah as usual nice upgrade to your Jeep! Cuzin! You gotta get some cordless impacts etc....lol make things easier and faster.......as always, Love and Aloha my Braddah!!!
Oh I have all the cordless stuff. I don’t know why I just always like using the hand tools when I’m not in a rush. Haha
Raja Dat! old school wrenching is always relaxing.
Mine came standard with these lights, didn’t realise there was a lower spec headlight
My model came with halogens. But for some reason I still people swapping out their stock versions out
@@GrandExploration sorry, I meant mine came with xenon bulbs from factory
@@angrymuffinsb gotcha gotcha.
I just bought these and can’t figure out the high beams..does these come with it!?

I have the 2015 too. Did the lights come with the spacers?
Yes they did
Sick
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Can’t wait to see them at night on a trail.
Soon. Should look good. Wish I could keep them blue full time for the trail
Hey Man what was the purpose of that wire that goes to the fuse box? im having issue with my left headlight it seemed dimmed
@@dopeboy0440 it was for running the DRLs constantly.
That’s crazy because my DRL are running without it.
Thank you for your response !
@@dopeboy0440 do they run constantly? Or do they only run when you switch to your park light?
@@GrandExploration you are correct man they only work when I have my parking lights on . When I have them on automatic . They don’t work.
@@dopeboy0440 so I think that’s the difference. With the wire mine stay on in auto
I had these put on my 2020 and having issues with the brights not functioning at all. Do yours work? Any ideas what the dealer might had gotten wrong?
@@Sir_Galahad777 I’ve been trying to get to the bottom of this with no luck. Yes mine is having the same issue and you are not the first to ask me.
@GrandExploration we really need to put this in the review of the head lights, the brites should work they claim full functionality
@@Sir_Galahad777 I plan to but I want to play with it first because when I hit my brights it looks like it’s doing something but it’s really low. So I’m wondering if it needs to be adjusted up.
@GrandExploration mine don't work at all, nothing happens when we switch back and forth
Mine work but they have a small flicker and have a buzzing noise.
whats DRL on the headlights?
@@juniorgarcia5344 the daytime running lights that stay on constantly
@@GrandExploration can you choose the drl to just stay on instead of both lights on? the main circle light and the drl?
I wanna see them perform at night
