here's some pics of them. the screws are just something i found in a toolbox laying around. they are about 3/4 inch longer. i'd just take the stock ones to home depot n match them up with something of same thread.
heres some pics of it. not adjusted yet, gonna go do that now and then take a pic of the cutoff line. gives a great comparison.

the wiring i just got 2 of those splice in connectors that don't require cutting of any wiring and used my tester to find what was low beam on sotck wiring. tapped hot into purple wire and ground into black wire. took about 30 sec.

all in all to do this entire install with wiring i'd say it'd take about an hour start to finish including adjusting them.
i got the lights locally but they are from www.norcalmr2.com I told the vendor of them to hop on here and post them up, see if ya'll can get a good deal.

with them being moved out a tiny bit i think it may let more light go to the sides and not hit the trim.

they are TONS better than stock. literally night n day difference.

i'll grab a shot from inside a lil later when i go back out.

I'm sending the manufacturer/vendor of these a sample of the screw i used so he can stock up on them. If you are ordering them for your jeep include that in the note and he will throw in 8 screws that you need to make these work perfect.


I spoke to the vendor/manufacturer and he said he'll do the headlight housings for $175 and then a full HID kit for them for just $99 more!

here's the group buy i got put together for you guys. $280 with free shipping inside the USA! most of you will want peg-hid which is everything you need to convert to HIDS and install the projectors.

http://norcalmr2.com/groupbuy/


Also when you order be sure to include that it's for a jeep so that he can include the 8 needed screws for the headlights.

***FYI, headlight orders have been placed overseas and should arrive into the USA in mid-January 2010 due to Xmas & New Year's holidays.*** - from the vendor
