I kinda like em. BUT is there a way to adjust them? They take up the whole headlight turn signal bezel area. And are one piece. I don't think they're adjustable. Definitely a no go if that's the case. They are unique though. Lol

They look a little better in the pix with them on an XJ

I couldn't find it on Google images but it was on eBay. I thought they were fugly at first too.

I looked at the listing again. I seen the back and there is NO adjustment so they are useless.

Default Portals

Does anyone know if I can have my 3.5in lift kit AND portals on my xj without having to upgrade the things like, steering, brake cable droop and so on?
I would like to put portal on my xj but I just don't know if it would work without other mods.

Nope still make me want to vomit.
I can think of a better use of 200 bucks. But all you buddy.
Adjusters found.

See the gold ring looking thing under the plug? That's the adjuster.

Nice. I missed that.

I agree at $200 I'd hold off. Only if I caught an auction below $100. I'd get em so I could make you lose your lunch. Lol

Honestly I think I get giddy about LEDs... gonna have to rip apart a housing and Frankenstein my own creation I guess...

Anyways, portals?

Ah portal axles.

Would be sick on a low cog rig. I would think you'd want/need a completely different steering setup anyways. Among other things.
