So I got the lights in today and they look and work great, they look really bright and go well with the jwspeaker's. I was suprised that the amount of projected light is far less than you'd think based on how bright they look. One issue that kinda sucks is that the led lamps dont quite fill the factory holes, I dont mind to much and I'll probably have a ring made to fill the gaps.

I was able to use posi taps to the factory plugs and they work perfectly with factory wiring and switch, no flickering at all. I just wonder if they are any better than just an led bulb in the factory lamp?

Here is a shot to see how the lamp looks in the hole.

I'll try to get some shots up here that show light pattern, it's more diffused than even the original factory fogs where, it's almost like it creates ambient lighting low and in front of the jeep with a little spread to the sides. With headlights off on a dark road you can really tell these work better than the factory ones.

They look good. I would have like to have seen a side by side light comparison. Has anyone flashed you due to their brightness at night?

Thanks. No one flashed me at all because these are true fogs with the LEDs facing the reflectors as opposed to straight out ahead. The light pattern is very diffused so I'm sure it doesn't blind anyone. Not sure I'm liking them though, the fact that they don't fill the factory holes bothers me more than I thought it would.

Here is a shot on a fence just fogs from where I was parked about five feet away and then one further back about 20 feet away. You can see how much light it spreads in front of my jeep.
