Yes, Jeep sells them as an accesory. I just ordered them and should get them tomorrow or Thursday $92

Light Bars provide mounting for up to 4 lights on your Commander, Liberty or Wrangler. Engineered to provide plenty of shake free illumination when heading off-road. Liberty kit includes everything as shown. Commander includes everything for a 2-Light system. Order additional Lights (82208488AB) if a 4 Light system is desired. Wrangler owners must order lights and installation wiring kit separately. TJ Light bar will interfere with the swing open feature on the optional sunrider top on Wrangler models.New light mounts for 07 Wrangler mount 2 lamps to outboard base of windshield.

Add Part # Name Description Price


82210556AB Light Bar 2 Brackets mount lamps to the base of the windshield. Use 82210507 Install kit and 82207271 Off Road Lights.

:confused: THIS IS WHAT JEEP HAS TO OFFER FOR WINDSHIELD LAMP BRACKETS. NOT SURE IF I LIKE THEM OR NOT. THE PICTURE I SAW THEY MOUNTED ON THE SIDE NOT IN FRONT.


WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THEM?

For a little piece of stamped sheet metal like that, they SHOULD cost about $5 each. I think MOPAR actually wants $92 for a set of two. KY Jelly sold separately.

That's insane.
What'd they pay the Phillipino toddler to stamp them out? 1/150th of a cent each?

Yes they are $92 list. I paid quite a bit less as I get a substantial discount, but still not sure if i like them. If I keep them they will most likely get painted silver to blen in a little better.

I want to put aux lights up there somewhere, but that just sounds steep. I think i will end up fabbing my own. Down $100 and don't even have lights or wiring done yet? uh... i dun think so. Not as long as i have the ability to do up my own anywho.

They almost look upside down to me. I would think the stud off a KC light would almost hit the cowl and plus my older KC lights have the wiring coming out of the bottom of the stud. Not much room by looking at the pics.

good point. it does seem like it would be a tight squeeze.

They look like they will work, i just think i would do them somehow differently. But then, i cant leave anything "stock" or with "stock" parts.

It's a sickness.

My family is worried.
