But since this could be on any jeep Ill post it here...
Before and after with another after coming soon for my pillar mounted lights...
The current Pillar lighting is real Jeep 5" which are closer to 4" diameter they included the housing have always been super bright for their size but at 700 for the lights and 280 for the not so grand styled mounting plates (thats about the design of it Plate look)
Horrible but can accommodate the police strobes for my work so It was what it was...
I am however updating the spots to 9" with Led Halo rings and newer design...
I added the bumper lights when I decided to go with a better design on the pillars after I had just purchased the first set... LOL Oh well...
I hooked the halo up to the AUX factory switch so since Im running on the AUX switches jeep installed factory and its through a relay I can connect both halos up set to switched with ignition in U connect head unit... one nice thing about modern jeeps with electronics when in other cases were complaining about things like this it works out great... and its programmable to switched or un-switched...
Anyhow You can see the rust starting to come from water intrusion after 7 yrs on the jeep on passenger side Pillar I may move these to rear bumper for back up lighting or not I havent decided I know I want the leak stopped so it may depend on the seal at the time.
I will not be spending more money if I just toss them aside for now so be it...
I can say the new bumper lights are very bright ...
