Question Did anyone notice this?



Is that a Halogen projector headlamp or an HID projector?

This is a pic of the CRD JK from SEMA...

Pretty cool ain't it. The JK uses the exact same size head lamp size with the only exception being the retaining ring that holds it in. In other words, any head lamp or head lamp housing that will fit a TJ should fit the JK as well so long as you can get your hands on the correct retaining ring.

I put real Sylvania HID's on the '03 but never could find a projector HID that fit without looking like a "boob"!
A lot of the kits (including the one I used) require major mods to the headlight buckets from behind.

Do you know who makes the one on the CRD JK?

This custom made JK was put together by Skunkwerks using a few parts from AEV and Mopar.

That is great news since I have a pair of Cibie European code headlights sitting in a box waiting for my Rubi!

Unfortunately, I don't know if anybody would be around to answer that question for me but if you can wait until after Thanksgiving, I'll make a few calls and find out for you.
