Just installed them yesterday.
Ease of Installation: 10/10 As much a plug and play as it can get.
Light quality: 8/10 Huge improvement over stock lights. Very bright. Spread on sides could be better but I am not complaining.
On-comer Distraction: 9/10 I drove around last night (I have a 4" lift) and not even one on-comer flashed at me.
Initial quality: 10/10 Very well packaged and looks/feels like a quality product when in your hands
Long term quality: ??? Time will tell

Really happy with this upgrade at this time and would recommend it to those who are considering purchase.

Another angle. I was considering one of the expensive 50" LED bars, but in the end I thought these JWs would be a better investment since I'd use them every day as opposed to once in a blue moon usage that the lightbar would get (for me).

Hope this helps some one...

Cheers!

Default love em

i have them right now ran them for 3 months before adjusting the angle and was blinding people so make sure you angle them the only draw back of them is that there isn't really any difference between low and high beam but there so bright it matter and the light is so crisp it will make you want to turn all your lights to LED

I did not notice that the angle could be adjusted. How do you do that?

I have not noticed any flicker personally. A smooth stream of light is what I see.

Correction...
Yesterday I did notice flicker while parking in my garage. It was noticeable on the wall in front of me.
I am not going to do anythig about it - since it is not noticeable while driving.

Jeeps alternators are small it's just drawing to much power, a battery would help. It might not seem like much but you will eat that alternator as its drawing power, hope this helps.
