They are awesome!

White YJ has them.

I would love to have them, but for now I got the putco harness and Rampage conversions.

My Jeep has been torn apart. Taking the head to get machined at a machine shop tomorrow morning. Hoping to have it back on and the jeep running this weekend.
Those rampages will suit you fine. I love mine.

Yep, that's what i'm hoping for. I might try out some different bulbs and see what works well for me.

E-code housings and similar cast a nice even flow of light. I still say high wattage bulbs are the **** and should buy in bulk to always have em. regular H4 bulbs have good light but other light sources over power them too much.

Continuing my search on what is the best year XJ to buy! By reading all I can here on CF and browsing Craig's List for available units! Can't wait to pull the trigger on one!

99 is supposedly the best of the 97-01
My buddy swears by 95 for the older body style

Out of the 85, 87, 88, 92, 93, 95, 98 and 99 that I've owned I have to go with 99.

Between my 93 and 98 I would pick my 93. I think it has more power and for me It's nicer to drive. Newer interior is to cramped for me. Plus the 98 has to much electrical problems to deal with.

My 99 has WAY more power than either of my 93's. I like the updated interior far better as well.

K, I'm done.

I used my XJ to drag my co-workers out of gas Honda out of the middle of the road at 5:45 this morning.
