Any recommendations for upgrading my headlights on my 1998 jeep Cherokee?

 

I see by your user name and the fact that you posted this twice, that you may have confused yourself too much. Once it wears off, go to Quadratec, find the Hella H4 headlights, buy those and a H4 wiring harness from Putco or K's Suspension. This will give you high quality and period-correct headlights that are reasonably priced and that work in all conditions.

Please please please don't buy cheap LEDs from eBay that look like mosquito eyes. They ruin the look of XJs and are not appropriate for daily use. If you really want LEDs for whatever reason, save and get TruckLites.

 

Im running the cheap led projectors and love them. On the trail light output is 100% improved. Also running the upgraded wiring harness.

Truck shops might have the truck lights in stock. Kenworth peterbilt shops.

Theres othere options to. Halogen housings, halogen housing with led bulbs.
Im running morimoto led bulbs in my pickup.. cutoff of great the dont blind.

My jeep does blind cars but only when I drive it at night.

 

I, too bought the LED projector lights....I think from Amaz...not that cheap at $100 a set. Properly set, they are the bomb! Much improved visibility and I have only been flashed a couple of times from other drivers
so hopefully they don't glare too much at oncoming traffic. But so far, I think its the best $100 I have spent on the XJ.

Just checked and the price of the lamps is $85.99. Again, money well spent.

Once installed, take a drive through your neighborhood at night and if you get flashed by oncoming drivers....ADJUST the lamps downward and to the right.

 

STTAAAAAAAAAPPPPPPPPP.

Jk - you do you, gents. All valid reasons for getting less-than-$400 LEDs. I still think they're ugly though lol.

 

This is probably the best setup for the $.

^^^ That's literally what I run in my daily XJ! Zero complaints. I will say the Hellas I have in my rig are a bit brighter... but a bit more expensive, so...

 

Visual is secondary.
to me the projectprojectors don't look bad

I don't care for tge halos wich mine have. Theyred nit wired to come on.

 

I bought these based on a few posts here. I think it’ll go well with my XJ’s darker color and the smoke finish of the headlights.

Spec-D LED Halo Headlights

 

I appreciate the advice, I inherited this from my uncle that passed away so gonna hook it up & travel in it in his honor. Spare no expense

 

You should ue the headlights of a similar Jeep model. This always do the trick!

 

You're totally right here. A coupe of Hella H4 headlights will definitely get the job done.

 

If a person wanted some of the best lighting this would be a consideration

I'm happy with my Grote headlights.

 

If budget is no concern check out Jw speaker revolution 2 Amazon has the silver version for 175 each. I’ve got them on my tj, I sent two pairs of the cheap ones back.
