Title: 2007 Wrangler Unlimited lights
Post by: nicksharding on December 05, 2011, 05:08:23 PM

I wondered if anyone can suggest how I uprate the lights on my 2007 Wrangler. The lights are not brilliant (to say the least!).  What's the best solution and where can I get them changed in Calgary, or anywhere closer to Canmore where I live?

Thanks

Nick.

There are a few guys that have put in the Hella H4 upgrade lights in.  Do a search for them.  W Squared posted a site that sells them a while back.

I replaced my Jk's headlights with the IPF lights, way better than stock.

Be honest. The factory JK light are craptacular. The "fog lights" are brighter than the low beams.

Susquehanna motorsports sells a great conversion kit for about $200. They provide H4 pots, bulbs, relays, and wiring harness...with just plain-jane 55W bulbs in there, those H4's perform as well as the HID's in my girlfriend's Audi - the only difference is that they don't have that cool colour that all of Fraser's friends from beyond.ca love so much. There's a "does not work with DRL" warning on the site, but I've talked with the guy at Susquehanna, and he says it's not an issue. Just be aware that once you install the kit, any time your Daytime running Lights turn on, your high-beams will be full on. You can solve this by either turning on your headlights (and running low beam), or by using an AEV pro-cal to adjust your computer so that the DRL programming turns on your fog lights instead of the high beams.
