Default Comanche, now Cherokee

A long time ago I had a Commanche and I loved it.

It ran great until someone in a big work truck skipped a stop sign and t-boned it. Totaled.

Last month I bought a 2000 Cherokee Sport and it reminds me of my old Commanche. It is completely stock which is all I need.

The only problem I have is dim headlights. I Replaced them and they are still dim so I found more suggestions here I will check out later this weekend.

Happy trails.

TM

Install a relay harness. It's an easy upgrade that will not only increase your light output 40%, but it will also help prevent your headlight switch from catching fire and burning out your interior. This one's cheap and comes highly recommended:

I installed the harness and the headlights are much brighter now.

It was very easy too. A wrench, screwdriver, and some zip ties to hold the wires in place and it was done.
