Well, I decided I would spend tonight upgrading the crappy factory headlights the Cherokee came with. The stock sealed beams were yellow and dim, the factory wiring harness is puny, and I had a hard time seeing much of anything more than 30 feet in front of the Jeep.
So, installed new Putco aftermarket headlight harness with solid state relays. Installed Autopal E-Code H4 compatible headlight housings. Installed Philips X-treme Power bulbs.
I can only equate my reaction to the first time I turned them on to what it must be like to see the sun for the first time. Holy *****! The difference is nothing short of phenomenal!! I know that from a pure lumens standpoint I may have only improved by 50%-60%, but visually, because of the higher lumen output and a brighter/whiter color temperature, it seems like I must have at least 3 times as much light output!!
