Jason thanks for the videos. I am currently a new Jeep owner and working on my upgrades really interested in the lights. I enjoy your videos and is helping while I'm learning to do my own wrench turning. Look forward to your next video. Again thanks!
I just got my first 2016 Jeep Wrangler unlimited sport on my birthday at the end of February, started looking for videos on how to modify my girl and found your channel! I love everything that you’ve published and I’ve watched a lot of your videos.
Howdy and welcome to the Jeep life!!! So happy that you are here, don't even hesitate to ask questions as you go along... I respond to all my old videos and my email is autoedits@gmail.com So don't ever feel alone!
Outstanding suggestion!! Just ordered my JW Speaker lights for my lifted 2013 Rubicon JK with 35s. I have always HATED the stock lights. Can't wait to experience the difference. AND love love love your channel. Always GREAT ideas. Thank you.
I’m hoping to get my first Jeep in couple months or so, and I’m so glad I found this channel! So much good info, and I can’t wait to upgrade my Jeep! I’m getting it stock, so I have lots to do😂
The headlights is a 100% must buy, Ive had mine for years and they are amazing.. fog lights arent a big deal though its just nice because they match, I just got the tail lights too after using a cheaper brand for a year and them not working when it rains.. driving on the freeway with no rear blinker in the rain is not fun, lesson learned on cheap tail lights
We want those tail lights Jason! We bought our first Jeep in January of this year. Your video on the 3 must have upgrades for Jeeps is actually the first video we stumbled across. We have been hooked ever since. Thanks for what you do and keep putting out videos!
I really thank you for this video. We drove home in the dark on a country road with lots of deer. I am going to check these lights out. Wow, I may have to save up for a while.
Wow! I really love your jeep build. All your mods are costing me money as well lol. I have installed the 3.5 gamechanger suspension and just ordered these lights as well! Keep on building!
Just ordered the JW Speaker 8700 J2 headlights for my Jeep. Took a predawn ride to a trailhead yesterday and just confirmed to me I needed an upgrade bad! Hope you get some residual for using your amazon store. Looking forward to getting them installed. Love your channel and content. Always a must watch! Cheers!
Jason....Thank you. I've been researching for a long time and going back and forth on which LED setup I wanted to get for my 15 Rubicon U. Your detailed and unbiased review turned me toward JW Speaker. My hesitation was the high cost, but you're correct...you do get what you pay for. With a little great timing, I just found that quadratec currently a sale on JW Speaker through the end of March...I saved over $450 on buying the same set up you install in this video...Thank you!
I have a 2015 JK. I opted for the KC Gravity Pro headlights. Also have their cube lights in both the front and rear bumper. I love them and their warranty is 23 years with no questions asked! I know because I had one headlight go out. They sent a replacement but then didn't color match the remaining light. Sent me a new pair! I have paw print covers over my tail lights so I left those stock...these JW ones are pretty awesome though.
I would suggest double pillar lights. I aim my bottom pillar lights 90 degrees to the sides and the top pillar lights at 45 degrees. It gives an incredible sweep of light. I have fog and spots on the bumper and a light bar up top. My rear bumper has two floods and two additional at 45 degrees. I have two-way rocker switches that allow me to control the forward lights with the high-beam switch, or manually. Great video! Keep it up. See you on the trails
TH-cam dint tell me you had a new video until today! Great upgrade! I got some JW speaker lights for my BMW E30. They weren't quite plug and play like yours, but the result is the same. Excellent light output with a nice cutoff.
Im sure you could. I had a problem with the JWs being deeper on the back than the ones on the BMW. I had to buy a couple of their brackets instead of using the stock headlight bucket and modify it to fit. Turned out well and as you know the light output is amazing.
Sooo Im a brand new JK sahara 2018 owner OMG I wish I would have purchased this vehicle years ago. Luv my Jeep Thank you so much for your videos very informative and I was looking for LED headlights definitely will purchase these.
Funny! Quadratec just had a package deal for all of the lights up front and I got mine in the mail yesterday. Already have the tail lights and am upgrading headlamps from a set of Trucklites
That is funny to hear about a package deal... would've liked to have known a bit sooner...lol I cant even tell you how happy I am with this stuff... very good! Enjoy your install as well!
Watching this instructional video means J.E.E.P. as I already installed the JWs (J2+6145) last month but now I have to get the turn signals.....just because. Nice upgrade!
You need to upgrade your hood latches my friend. But always a pleasure to watch your videos! One of my favorite TH-camrs! Love the JK build series!! Keep the videos coming please
I have all the same stuff minus the turn signals and fogs. Have Rugged ridge in the bumper. They're insanely bright. HUGE upgrade compared to stock. I have a nice set of cube lights on the pillars that fill in the gap.
Man you’ve done such a great job with your Jeep, I remember seen your first video when you changed the exhaust and seeing it now it’s whole different beast... thumbs up brother
I would highly recommend you check out Lazer lamps, they are led light bars that focus the light only where you need it. They are small bars but they sure produce a lot of light. Their triple r light bar series would look awesome on your front bumper centered.
You need something like the TrailDash2 that allows you to keep your fog lights on when you turn the brights on. I have JW Speaker headlight and fog lights and the TrailDash2 and it's nice to have the fogs with the brights, the fogs light up the ground close to the Jeep all the way across the road giving you much more field of view, but only for a little distance.
The only time I wish I had a light bar on top of the window was when I was bombing through the sand dunes at night when it requires SO MUCH LIGHT to see into the distance. I have an insane amount of light with just upgraded headlights, front pods on the bumper, and well positioned KC Cyclones around the Jeep. No problem seeing anything when on a trail.
I like your vids cause title I'm just like eh anyone can install headlights or in general of you installing something. But then your also full of cool information to nice to know about. That's what keeps me watching
Mr. Jason with your OCD cleaning of every nook and cranny on your beloved Jeep. I saw a dirty engine bay. How dare you... 😉. Love the upgrades! I've been considering a couple JW upgrades myself.
If the relays for the high beam and fog light are real close together, you can just put a diode connecting them. Look up the all on mod for chevy trucks. Similar idea
My rigid e2 series light bar sounds like a jet engine taking off but bright as hell. The light comes with these things that goes on the fins of the light bar to keep it quiet I only get a whistle when it’s super windy. I also have all jw speaker lights on my jeep absolutely love them. Also for rock lights I recommended KC Cyclones I have the 6 piece set and love it but I’m going to add 2 more to the front.
So wanting new tail lights. Factory are adequate but really need to upgrade to LED's Great videos, trying to stay in a budget but dang it! its hard to! LOL
What an awesome upgrade and yes I agree with you that replacing the stock stuff first is better. I went with KC Hilites for headlights and fog lights because I liked the color and light spread more but I definitely agree with the JW tail lights of which I did to.
Awesome!!! I love to hear that and hope you enjoy the process as much as I did... plus I'm still stoked on the performance of this stuff. How about you?
I currently have the J1 headlights and while I love the output, I think I may go to a Trucklite for the more traditional look. I'm still on the fence, though.
Great upgrade Jason! I’ll have to do that to my 2015 JK I just bought last week! I’m looking forward to doing a lift and 35” tires. Thank you for all the great videos! By the way, I’ve moved back to Alberta Canada... it’s time to make some money!! Take care ! Mike
You might think so, but they almost certainly do not work great. Why people with Wranglers bother with crap like that when there are totally legitimate halogen upgrades for a similar price is beyond me.
hjjfffaa to each there own I guess but they do work great IMO. They produce more light than the stock so I am happy and they change colors too which is cool Aswell!
Their effectiveness isn't a matter of opinion. Putting more light, if they even do output more light, where it's not needed can be ineffective or dangerous. Headlights should also not change color for various legal and performance reasons.
Love your videos! Produced very well, great content and how to on a lot of items. I checked out your links and this is definitely a very pricey upgrade...~$1500. Wow, seemed like a great advertisement for very high end and expensive lighting solution. Struggling with this one as it seems there would be some more affordable alternatives without giving up your first born. Again...love your videos.
Hey Jason great install👍🏽 I have the Jw speaker j series headlights and just installed the j2 series fogs on my 2014 JKU! Have you figured out how to keep the fogs on with the high beams?
That looks awesome. I had a windshield light bar on my Jeep for all of about 2 days. I couldn't take the noise that it made. Are you going to do some more videos like the Miller Jeep Trail? I would love to see some more off road videos from you.
I like how the JWs have everything in house, while I opted for VisionX headlights and love the pattern on them, having to add an external anti flicker harness isn't ideal.
Always loved the clean look of the JW tail lights just been out of my price range for upgrades to the jeep but man I would be so stoked to get a set and have that perfect clean look of black tail lights to accent the hyper green jku. Good luck to all the commenters but pick me please lol🤙🏼
Very nice upgrades. Our 2017 wrangler has the Mopar LED headlights. They are a huge improvement also over the base lights. I have always wanted the JW tail lights. They are slick looking! Its too bad they aren't plug and play too. Still a great upgrade though. Thanks for the video!
Those Mopar lights are good looking units! I would say the tail lights are plug and play... having to mount the resistor external is just to keep it cooler and is extremely easy... still no extra harness or other wiring to mess with. Thanks so much for the comment!
autoedit right outside of Colorado Springs we have old stage road that has a few god trails off of it. Eagle rock trail has some fun obstacles. And then outside of Buena Vista we have Chinaman gulch that is great as well!
When I installed my JW Speakers I was surprised how much I had to readjust the lights. Particularly the passenger side. That passenger side had to be adjusted to the right a considerable amount. It was so bad that the passenger light was pointing further to the left than the drivers side! Then to make me really mad, the lateral (side to side) adjustment screw does not have the T-15 head on the screw. You literally have to removed the whole light assembly and use a wrench on the back side to adjust the screw and then reinstall the light, check and do it again until you finally have the correct adjustment. I can only hope the newer models actually give you both adjustment screws with the T-15 screw head. So, yeah... definitely check the adjustment. As I've not heard about a single person that didn't have to do at least some adjustment.
JW may make the lights for McLarens but they suffer from the same issue as all others; which is the adjustment ends up cross-eyed, creating a hot spot in the center. To fix that cheaply, buy two extras of the factory adjustment screws and pop out the factory headlight bucket studs for those so that you have both vertical and horizontal adjustment. Oh and to make the grill removable, trim the bottom center alignment nub down and cut off the two mounting clips on either side of that. The remaining two clips at the far edges are more than enough to hold the grill in place and flexible enough for you to bend them a bit to contort the grill around the winch.
They were available for the hog in 5 and 7 inch as a official Harley dealer accessory but branded as Speaker before they were sold for cars. I put one on my Dyna back in 2013. It lasted a day and fried. Replaced it under warranty and it’s been running ever since. Great light, despite price (cheaper now than in 2013). I put HIDs on headlights and fogs but have been wanting Speakers for those applications, too.
Jason, have you had any issues with error codes involving the control circuit being high? Your lights look great. Did you do any adjustment to the ECU? The stock lights on your JK were halogen (like my original headlights). I have been having a difficult time with my KC Hilites headlights triggering error codes, and after awhile they stop working. Today, I heard that I may need to have the ECU reprogrammed.
I am supplementing my comment. After struggling for over a year with my KC Hilites LEDs, I reached a couple of knowledgeable people at KC Hilites who told me that there is a problem between the ECU and the LEDs. They suggested that I talk with Jeep, so I talked to two dealer service departments. They told me that they could reprogram my ECU, which may eliminate the error codes. Well, last week I took my Jeep to a Jeep dealer and they reprogrammed my ECU to accept LED lights. It has been a week, and I have no error codes. I am cautiously optimistic. FYI, it cost me $135 to have the reprogramming done.
Jason thanks for the videos. I am currently a new Jeep owner and working on my upgrades really interested in the lights. I enjoy your videos and is helping while I'm learning to do my own wrench turning. Look forward to your next video. Again thanks!

I recommend getting a high quality light... the cheap ones you might find are not good.
@@AutoEdits I know but a thousand bucks for 2 headlights is a bit steep
I’ve been waiting for you specifically to make this video! I love the quality of your videos and you explain everything so well! Thank you!
Wow! I really love your jeep build. All your mods are costing me money as well lol. I have installed the 3.5 gamechanger suspension and just ordered these lights as well! Keep on building!

You are the bestest!!!!! Thank you thank you!

It's because of my looks... maybe I'll get a hair transplant and do some push-ups or something...lol
Thanks so much for the shout!
O Devious m
Got to love it when when things you add not only look better but function better too!
You got that right!!!

My first mode that I made to my JK, was upgrading lights to JW Speaker, they are awesome!
Why didn't you tell me sooner... LOL!!!!

Great show Jason. Just binge watched entire series over last 5 days. Well done Sir.
Welcome and thanks so much !!!!!!
You need to upgrade your hood latches my friend. But always a pleasure to watch your videos! One of my favorite TH-camrs! Love the JK build series!! Keep the videos coming please
HA! Thanks so much for the support and yes... you definitely are right in calling me out on those awful hood latches.
Sweet upgrade! I would use some torx screws or something on the tail lights to deter them from growing legs and walking off.
Great suggestion!
Lights look great. Wish I could afford them. Top of the line for sure
I have these and they are the best upgrade PERIOD
I agree!
"John Galt" - that's awfully presumptuous, LOL!
I have all the same stuff minus the turn signals and fogs. Have Rugged ridge in the bumper. They're insanely bright. HUGE upgrade compared to stock. I have a nice set of cube lights on the pillars that fill in the gap.
Quality of those videos is magnificent. You are very entertaining. Pinto gives this videos cute vibes :) I always wait for next video:)
Extra scratches for Pinto the Dog!!!! Thank you!

Lol I used to have those same vans. Keep up the good work Jason, the whole JW package is a real nice touch and objectively a better upgrade.
Good spot! LOL

Pinto lights up the video.....:-) nice install, supper cool lights.....
I see what you did there..."Pinto lights up the video..." Love it!
Dude, those blinkers. Straight Fire. def adding them. I did the JW headlights last year. thanks man. keep's coming
I'm not even surprised you already have the headlights... you got that impeccable taste thing on all your projects!!! LOL
I use a superchip tuner and there is an option to set your fog lights to stay on with high beams. And the jeep looks great!
Thanks, it looks like that might be the one I might go with!
You should check out the ProComp headlights. I'm very impressed by their performance and they don't break the bank.
Thanks for the suggestion, I'm pretty happy so far with these but I do appreciate that they are pricey.
Superchips flashcal has a option to keep fog lights on with high beams
Thanks for the suggestion... looking into that!
Jason- some day when I grow up, I want to be just like you! Thanks for make such great videos!
HAHAHA! Dude, the things I've learned chasing you around... come on! Let's do something again soon!
The only time I wish I had a light bar on top of the window was when I was bombing through the sand dunes at night when it requires SO MUCH LIGHT to see into the distance. I have an insane amount of light with just upgraded headlights, front pods on the bumper, and well positioned KC Cyclones around the Jeep. No problem seeing anything when on a trail.
I like the Cyclones... looking in to those as an option.
Careful... they are addictive. I have 18 installed now for various reasons hahhaa!
I put the rugged ridge hood latches on my rig n it makes a huge difference on the highway. I would definitely recommend doing it to yours as well!
Great suggestion!
Man I love your Jeep and your channel. Man that Jeep is so sharp!!
Thanks so much dude!
I like your vids cause title I'm just like eh anyone can install headlights or in general of you installing something. But then your also full of cool information to nice to know about. That's what keeps me watching
Love this! Thanks so much for watching and taking a moment to share a supportive comment!
Got J2s a few months ago, and they are definitely worth it.
I agree 100%
Thank you for cleaning off the bucket around the break light! ✊
Your Welcome! LOL
Mr. Jason with your OCD cleaning of every nook and cranny on your beloved Jeep. I saw a dirty engine bay. How dare you... 😉. Love the upgrades! I've been considering a couple JW upgrades myself.
HA! Busted... yeah I haven't cleaned the engine from the last trip to Death Valley and am over due!
INSTANT THUMBS UP!! The video I’ve been waiting for you to do! Sweet upgrade!!
So glad to hear this! Thanks for watching!
If the relays for the high beam and fog light are real close together, you can just put a diode connecting them. Look up the all on mod for chevy trucks. Similar idea
Thanks for the tip!
Thanks man, this video was very helpful and well done. Got my LED's in and running like a champ.
Great, now you are ready to get out there and blind other driver's! Thanks asshole!
your videos help me a lot on the mods I could do on my jeep! Love it!
Glad to hear that! Thanks so much for the support!

So wanting new tail lights. Factory are adequate but really need to upgrade to LED's Great videos, trying to stay in a budget but dang it! its hard to! LOL
Another great video! I always thought it would be more difficult than you made it look.
It's really easy!
Flashcal will let you have the fogs on with your high beams
Damnit, I already have Rigid Industries. Guess I’ll pony up for these. Built in anti-flicker won me over.
The Rigid is one of the other companies I would use... I like them a bunch for the auxiliary lights!

Great video man. I'm thinking of upgrading my 2018 Rubicon to LED headlights
I am really happy with this upgrade... hang on a week or two and JW Speaker is coming out with an updated version of this setup!
Thanks this video made me go by all of these and followed the install from here. Love them
Awesome!!! I love to hear that and hope you enjoy the process as much as I did... plus I'm still stoked on the performance of this stuff. How about you?
AutoEdits performance is great and better then better then I could have hoped. Install was fun also.
Super i have buy them. Thanks and greets from Belgium Antwerp
Glad you like them! Howdy from California!
I'm def getting these the Stock lights SUCK on our Rubicon.. shouldve done it a year ago
I've been so happy with them!!!!
Yes! Been waiting for this one
ME TOO!!!
Jeep looks awesome. You've done a job job on it.
Thanks! I’m so happy with it so far!
First thing I did to my Jeep was the JW lights. Now I just need fog lights for the 10A bumper
I think they sell a separate adapter for that bumper but they are absolutely worth it!
You should get an offroadX antennae.
Oh heck yeah JW speakers are the best! Great color choice
Thanks! Yeah, I thought the texture might look good and it does!
autoedit Yeah the black housing on a Jeep looks way better than the original chrome housing.
Great vid - thanks for sharing! Can you please share which bumper/winch combo and tires you're running?
th-cam.com/video/WHzIgT4KqXI/w-d-xo.html
Great install. Good looking rig
Thanks! I like the way it's coming out.
VERY good choice for lighting upgrades. I personally HATE the light bars. I like round lights, the bars make vehicles look cheap - IMO.
Awesome video...I am definitely going with these for my JK. THANKS!!
Glad to hear that, thanks so much for watching and saying hey!
There nice! Your a lucky man. I’m jealous
thanks for all the videos! love this channel, and I am always getting great ideas from watching!
I currently have the J1 headlights and while I love the output, I think I may go to a Trucklite for the more traditional look. I'm still on the fence, though.
Man you getting the best stuff I like
Great upgrade Jason! I’ll have to do that to my 2015 JK I just bought last week! I’m looking forward to doing a lift and 35” tires. Thank you for all the great videos! By the way, I’ve moved back to Alberta Canada... it’s time to make some money!! Take care ! Mike
Howdy! I still have to get up to Alberta for a visit... looks beautiful up there. Welcome to the Jeep JK club!
like the videos. but have 50" bar with no noise doing 90 on freeway with top off. keep on making videos
I'm cool with the light bars just saying in the hardtop Jeeps I've been in, they were noticeable.
Excellent video I love the tail lights they are fantastic... Do you have a link in your description for the teail lights...?
In the description.
I have a similar looking Chinese brand headlights from Amazon got so for 130 and they work great!
You might think so, but they almost certainly do not work great. Why people with Wranglers bother with crap like that when there are totally legitimate halogen upgrades for a similar price is beyond me.
hjjfffaa to each there own I guess but they do work great IMO. They produce more light than the stock so I am happy and they change colors too which is cool Aswell!
Their effectiveness isn't a matter of opinion. Putting more light, if they even do output more light, where it's not needed can be ineffective or dangerous. Headlights should also not change color for various legal and performance reasons.
Hey, whatever makes you happy. I'm just glad to hear about anyone tinkering on their Jeep.
Love your videos! Produced very well, great content and how to on a lot of items. I checked out your links and this is definitely a very pricey upgrade...~$1500. Wow, seemed like a great advertisement for very high end and expensive lighting solution. Struggling with this one as it seems there would be some more affordable alternatives without giving up your first born. Again...love your videos.
You get what you pay for.
You should do a video on how to clean the Jeeps suspension
It’s on the list of videos to do
Jason....next upgrade should be JL aluminum hood latches!!!!
Wait, what??? That's a thing??? I love it!
Does it help with hood flap? (not sure that is the correct term-buffetting in the air at speed?)
Hey Jason great install👍🏽 I have the Jw speaker j series headlights and just installed the j2 series fogs on my 2014 JKU! Have you figured out how to keep the fogs on with the high beams?
Not yet... but there have been many comments that the SuperChips tuner allows that... I just haven't gotten around to buying one like that yet!
AutoEdits oh too bad I have the AEV ProCal I don’t think it has that option! Thanks anyways keep up with the awesome videos your Jeep is awesome 👍🏽
Great to see a new video Thank you!! Awesome job.👍
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
That looks awesome. I had a windshield light bar on my Jeep for all of about 2 days. I couldn't take the noise that it made. Are you going to do some more videos like the Miller Jeep Trail? I would love to see some more off road videos from you.
So glad to hear this... yes I would like to do more off road adventure videos!
I like how the JWs have everything in house, while I opted for VisionX headlights and love the pattern on them, having to add an external anti flicker harness isn't ideal.
There is always something like that with different elements of the build but I've heard good things about the VisionX.
Always loved the clean look of the JW tail lights just been out of my price range for upgrades to the jeep but man I would be so stoked to get a set and have that perfect clean look of black tail lights to accent the hyper green jku. Good luck to all the commenters but pick me please lol🤙🏼
That looks great
i dig all your vids man. thanks so much for the info and insight
Thank you!
Also upgraded headlights are great for the road to, as you cant use a light bar on the road.
EXACTLY! Good point!
Very nice upgrades. Our 2017 wrangler has the Mopar LED headlights. They are a huge improvement also over the base lights. I have always wanted the JW tail lights. They are slick looking! Its too bad they aren't plug and play too. Still a great upgrade though. Thanks for the video!
Those Mopar lights are good looking units! I would say the tail lights are plug and play... having to mount the resistor external is just to keep it cooler and is extremely easy... still no extra harness or other wiring to mess with.
Thanks so much for the comment!
Next. Wheeling video. You need to make your Way to Colorado we have all types of good Jeep trails to hit here
I would love to! I did Black Bear Pass with Dirt Every Day years ago and it was amazing.
autoedit right outside of Colorado Springs we have old stage road that has a few god trails off of it. Eagle rock trail has some fun obstacles. And then outside of Buena Vista we have Chinaman gulch that is great as well!
If your looking for some rock lights i would look into the kc hilights.
Thanks for the tip!
When I installed my JW Speakers I was surprised how much I had to readjust the lights. Particularly the passenger side. That passenger side had to be adjusted to the right a considerable amount. It was so bad that the passenger light was pointing further to the left than the drivers side! Then to make me really mad, the lateral (side to side) adjustment screw does not have the T-15 head on the screw. You literally have to removed the whole light assembly and use a wrench on the back side to adjust the screw and then reinstall the light, check and do it again until you finally have the correct adjustment. I can only hope the newer models actually give you both adjustment screws with the T-15 screw head. So, yeah... definitely check the adjustment. As I've not heard about a single person that didn't have to do at least some adjustment.
Good suggestion. I haven't adjusted these yet but they might need some tweaking. I literally threw them on and went driving for the video.
JW may make the lights for McLarens but they suffer from the same issue as all others; which is the adjustment ends up cross-eyed, creating a hot spot in the center. To fix that cheaply, buy two extras of the factory adjustment screws and pop out the factory headlight bucket studs for those so that you have both vertical and horizontal adjustment. Oh and to make the grill removable, trim the bottom center alignment nub down and cut off the two mounting clips on either side of that. The remaining two clips at the far edges are more than enough to hold the grill in place and flexible enough for you to bend them a bit to contort the grill around the winch.
This is really good stuff, thank you so much for all this data. I will follow this!
Got yourself a new Subscriber buddy awesome videos sick JK!!! 👌🏻 just got a 15 last weekend let the upgrades begin 😂
Welcome and Howdy! Prepare to spend all you money and time on your Jeep...LOL
AutoEdits tell me about it 1 week today and I already spend $500 😂 next thing is a lift with 35”s
Thanks for the suggestion. May i ask what kind of bumper that is and where to get it?
Sure thing... that's the Metalcloak front bumper.
I'm here waiting for the A/M world to get caught up on the JLU. :)
Great videos man. Thanks
Thank you!
U have a massive hotspot in your light output
Yes, they need to be adjusted a bit. I literally installed them and went for a drive... no tweaking yet.
Those headlights look like the day maker headlights on Harley Davidson motorcycles.
JW Speaker makes many great upgrades for motorcycles so you probably saw one.
They were available for the hog in 5 and 7 inch as a official Harley dealer accessory but branded as Speaker before they were sold for cars. I put one on my Dyna back in 2013. It lasted a day and fried. Replaced it under warranty and it’s been running ever since. Great light, despite price (cheaper now than in 2013). I put HIDs on headlights and fogs but have been wanting Speakers for those applications, too.
Jason, have you had any issues with error codes involving the control circuit being high? Your lights look great. Did you do any adjustment to the ECU? The stock lights on your JK were halogen (like my original headlights). I have been having a difficult time with my KC Hilites headlights triggering error codes, and after awhile they stop working. Today, I heard that I may need to have the ECU reprogrammed.
I am supplementing my comment. After struggling for over a year with my KC Hilites LEDs, I reached a couple of knowledgeable people at KC Hilites who told me that there is a problem between the ECU and the LEDs. They suggested that I talk with Jeep, so I talked to two dealer service departments. They told me that they could reprogram my ECU, which may eliminate the error codes. Well, last week I took my Jeep to a Jeep dealer and they reprogrammed my ECU to accept LED lights. It has been a week, and I have no error codes. I am cautiously optimistic. FYI, it cost me $135 to have the reprogramming done.
I’m curious to know what your gas mileage is, love your jeep! 🤘🏻
