Don't mean to HiJack but I love your jeep Indiana... Can you tell me about your Stubbie how did you do your end caps, and what marker lights are you running I hate the stock Yellow ones.

Sweet pic by the way....

Yes, it was a really easy mod. You need to take the grill off, but it's simply removing the fasteners in the top (take your time and they come right out) then the grill pretty much comes straight out (unclip the turn signal harnessess). I was surprised how easy it was.

Attaching the QT brackets only took about 15-20 minutes, then put the grill back together, and mounted the lights. I would recommend this if you don't want to drill holes and don't have an aftermarket bumper yet.

For the money they are a good value. If I need more light I'll upgrade but for now with the stock lights, fogs, windshield and bumper lights on I get enough light.

Take your time wiring them up using relays and you'll be pleased.

Here's where they were before I got KC brackets:
Do you get glare off of your hood? My JK is stone white, and I get a tremendous amount of glare off my hood that makes it difficult to drive with them on at night. I am sure that being a white hood does not help, but was wondering if everyone else had the same problem.

Bump. There is a thread on replacing stock fog lights with a set of 30.00 blue fogs from one of the auto part stores. Might want to check it out. Hope that helps.
