Have the new Truck Lite LED's and they're great especially for mountain driving. JW's for the price just werent worth it and was even told that by a few vendors. They look nice but not 800 bucks nice

JW's only

No. I looked at a side by side comparison at Trail Jeeps in Denver and there really wasnt a difference in beam patterns or distance. The ONLY thing better about the JW's were the looks and that wasnt enough for me to spend 200 more. The TL's werent cheap either but I just wanted to do a full replacement lamp over an HID conversion. You can use your factory housing with the HID kits. If your low on change then go HID but if you can stand at least 600 then go with the TL's. You wont be upset with either

I have the Hellfire Kit, and I love them. Other people around me absolutely hate them, but so far, me and the Jeep haven't felt too upset about it. The light output of the Hellfire Kit is rediculous compared to the stock lights.. Night and Day different. Oh, and when you install them, you will probably need to adjust the lights.. I didn't for a month, and EVERYONE hated me at night. My lows were positioned like brights and my brights shot straight into space. It was funny.
