Show me your custom light installs?

Less is more. Get high-quality front head lights (KC halogens or Toyota factory Koitos with good H4 bulbs, or LED Holley Retrobrights), a good pair of fogs (VisionX or KC) to fill in and a good pair of tail lights like BMB. If need be, add a couple flat LED lights in the rear valence area below the tailgate and wired appropriately to abide road laws.

Pay attention and you will have good useful light and you will have have butchered the looks of the TJ in the process.

Very practical!

Did you cut the switch plunger shorter?
Yes. Quite a bit.

Pretty much exactly what I have done. I had flush mounted LEDs in the stock rear bumper but the Barnes Low Profile doesn't really have the room.

Custom LED projectors built from JK headlights. About as custom as possible, I had to pull the assembly apart after cooking in the oven, then install the projectors. Paint, ect. They worked very well and were cool to boot. The white was the DRL, and it flashed amber with the turn signal

I've since changed headlights to combat some annoying RFI after installing a vhf radio. I now have Hella housings with halogen bulbs (good enough i guess...) but I really do like the look of the amber halo. Oracle lighting sells a surface mount halo but I don't like how expensive they are.

I have some rock lights that are pretty well hidden that illuminate most of the undercarriage, but I could use one or two more to have full coverage.

Next on the list when the weather is pleasant will be some auxiliary reverse lights flush mounted just under the tailgate. I hate cutting my tub but this spot would offer more protection than being exposed to the wheel well where they would get covered in tons of fine dirt and sand for the muddy logging roads. jeep halo.jpg
