I like square on the XJs cause it goes with the rest of the Jeeps lines and also like them mounted high so they dont get covered in mud too quick.

They look better below the bar but will restrict airflow.

that was the reason for them being on top to start. though no change in temps with them lower still running a tick under 210* I drive it maybe 50 miles a week if that and she's trailed to the trails
