What are you lookin to do with the lights. Meaning you drive alot at night, trails. Harbor freight has decent light for cheap. Hella has great lights.

Anything you do get run the lights through a relay That way protects wiring and overall most xj owners will advise that way

EBay has a wealth of small, inexpensive light bars like that.
