So I just bought a headlight harness on the buy sell trade section from jhc. I want to upgrade the headlights as well. I'm no guru on lights so no idea what's best. I've been researching and am stumped. What do you guys recommend? Not sure how I feel about leds. H4 housings are probably sufficient. I came across this thread with some nice options that cruiser listed. https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f2/changing-headlight-bulb-191885/

Thoughts?

 

Go with hella h4 glass housings with a good 90/100 watt h4 bulbs.

 

These? They come with a bulb so should I get different ones?

Use the h4 housing with these.

Hella e code are nice and worth the money.

 

i have the autopal ecodes. i installed the putco harness and the housings maybe 3.5 years ago. one has had a rock chip in it for almost 2 years and hasn't gotten worse or let water in yet. they're not yellow and still look/work well. i had some piaa extreme white or something bulbs in them originally but they only lasted 1.5 years. i put sylvania xtra visions in it and can tell a very slight difference in output but it's worth the trade if they last longer.

i'm very happy with the current setup of putco/ecodes/sylvania xtra vision. i'd love to have LEDs if they put out some heat. these indiana winters can be rough and i'm not interested in scraping ice and snow off the headlights every time i go out.

 

I'm running Sylvania Extra Visions. Had the Autopal E-Codes (non-diamond cut), with 85/110s for several years until the inside reflectors rusted away. I prefer the light pattern on the U.S. DOT headlights over the cutoff E-Codes now.

May try SilverStars sometime.

 

I just ordered a set of Autopals for my camo Comanche after having them on my white one for years.

It's the deal of the century as far as e-codes.
I used to work in a foreign parts and accessory store. I've had Hella, Cibie, Marchal etc. Not worth the extra money over Autopal.

I have a full morimoto HID setup. If you have good eyes it's probably overkill but my eyes are bad and I need the most light I can legally get.

 

I have Autopal e codes as well. Big difference with the upgrade harness.

 

Would any of you guysv consider trucklites? Alot of people like them but are they really worth it? Xj88 also suggested high beam offroad in another thread and I'm looking into them.

 

These good?

You will not be disappointed.....
