Install Putco wiring harness. One of the best mods I've done. I also ordered new Autopal housings and bulbs. Will have to see how much better they will be.

One of my favorite upgrades I've done is my headlights. I used a Putco harness, autopal housings and hella 100/80 watt bulbs. It was very easy to do.

How do you like the Autopal housings? I was going to get the Rampage ones, but decided to go the cheaper route.

Bumper, Slider, Lift, Gas tank Skid, Locker, Off Road lights were all Easy to install mods

But I have access to a Lift and about $115,000 worth Snap on tools to use at work
