I put kc 100w driving lights on my windshield mounts and they are great, a wider beam helps light up everything in front of me and to the sides a little, not just pencil points. Mine is rescue green and absorbs some of that light, leaving very little glare. A white or silver jeep may make the glare seem much worse.

Did the LED dash mod. Built my own custome wire harness'. Tied my driving beams into my high beams. Tied my rock lights into my dome light. And tied my reverse lights into the reverse circuit.

Sorry man I don't remember the brand. But I can tell you that It wasn't the right one. Did the antenna mod and tried using the full antenna. Worked O.K untill I drove through a wind storm. Then the long antenna started beatting the crap out of my jeep. Ran in the parts store and found this one. It looked like it would just change wright out. It came with multipule studs to fit many aplications. Found out that It did not come with the one to fit the jeep, The stud on the bottom of the antenna is a 5/16 bolt. So I drilled the new antenna and tapped it to 5/16. Then I baught a 5/16 bolt and cut the threads off the bolt and turned it into a stud. Reception is verry well.

I would say that any of the Driving Beams and "Fogs" are legal as long as you also comply with your local regs. Anything labeled "Off Road" would not be.
