KC's for under $100 are gonna be hard to come by, unless they are the 35 series.

It depends on what you are using them for. Also you need to find out if they are street legal.

Well my guess would be 55w would be the street legal max, but good offroad lights are usually 100-150w which makes them not street legal. If I were buying them for on road use I would go with the 55w fogs.(Dont think long range are street legal, going on the candle power) But if you want them for serious offroad lighting I would keep looking.

No problem. I could be wrong about the street legal part who knows. I ran some cheap offroad only lights on my last xj and I just had to get used to people flashing there lights at me all the time. Haha

I asked for some stuff for my jeep for Christmas too. My list had some rubber floor mats, because my friends always get the floors really wet with snow. I had some additional lighting on there as well, told them Walmart had some or Harbor Freight. My speakers are not sounding too hot anymore so I put some 5.25 inch speakers on there too. All these can be found under $100 (I hope!) and were some things that I wanted. Good luck!

for lights you can get a bunch of the harbor freight ones that everyone has been talking bout for a little while

or instead of floor mats ask for heculiner, rip out the carpet and put that down

Default Lights are a good idea

I like the idea of getting some lights for your Jeep - easy to install and will look good. Also you can get customized car mats now, which are ace- get the car logo embrodded in as well which is cool - I got some for last xmas , the Jeep is looking ace inside
