I purchased these on the 15th and received them on the 23rd so it didnt take that long to receive them from the UK. The total was about a hundred after shipping and they look nice when mounted.

I also bought a set off ebay a couple years ago from a USA vendor. The mounting brackets needed some serious grinding to make them fit right, so much that the integrity if the welds was compromised. I actually bought my first ginder just for this!

How did yours fit? About how heavy (duty) would you say they are? Mine are pretty heavy, but like I said, didn't fit easily.

Hey 90xj, I think Smittybilt also makes (made?) some of these, but they are more for show than any serious protection - y'know like the Mall-crawler flavor. Like the difference between nerf bars & rock rails.

better than guards, buy my steel tail lights with LED's

I bought the same items and they seem well made and pretty strong. When I went to fit them, I found that that the left hand one stopped the boot lid from closing. I think it needed some washers behind the plate to line it up properly - either that or you could bend the guards out a bit.

My XJ has obviously had a light impact on the left rear (which broke the rear lights and bent the corner piece of the bumper) so it might be due to that.

Either way I gave up at that point because it was freezing and I was working by the light of a headtorch... I'll be fitting them in spring because I think they will work out nicely with a bit of fettling.
Bear in mind that I have the mechanical ability of a three toed sloth I don't think you should be put off.

It took a little work for me to get them mounted because of that rubber grommet too but once on they look good and serve their purpose.
