Headlight Suggestions

I have swapped in the Truck-lite heated LED head lights probably 10 years ago or so. They still work great and have a lot more light than the OEM's. Pretty expensive, $600 back then but I haven't seen them so maybe they're not even a thing anymore....

Ad says it's just H4 bulbs. You could probably just put those same bulbs in your OEM lights. Have you considered their LED option?

I have Octane headlights. They are glass lenses. One is cracked from a rock. Not critical, but always looking to replace and these are no longer available.

I’ve looked at these halogen KC Hilite for awhile. I’ve looked at the KC HiLite LED’s too, but $600+ is too rich for my blood.

Based on those images their setup is basically the same as the H4 options from Hella or Koito (Toyota).

Only difference would probably be their light pattern.

Looks like another good H4 option.

That’s good to know. If they’re basically the same maybe just go with Hella’s or Koito’s since they’re cheaper. I need to check the light color temps on those again. I know the KC’s are 4000.

@JMT - have you made a decision yet?

Has anybody had experience with the KC LED's? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DNK7BFA/?tag=wranglerorg-20
Theyre expensive, but on sale. The Truck-lite heated LED headlights I have had on my TJ for 10 years must not be made any longer, so I'm in search of a different option for the LJ. I have seen a couple photos of the KC's light pattern and color and they look about as good as any new vehicle but first hand experience would be nice to hear from.

No, I haven’t. I should buy them, but I’m tied up in buying everyone else stuff for Christmas!
