Major improvement at night, the low beams with the sharp cut-off really...

Got the harness installed tonight, will take some pics in the AM. Should the connection between the factory harness and the Putco harness get taped up or something?

I don't have a Pep Boys...

No worries, used to that with my high-powered headlights on my enduro bikes for night rides. Hoping to have time tomorrow after work to get these installed, so I can see what I need to add for...

Well, everything FINALLY showed up. I have the Hella housings, the Putco harness, and two sets of Hella bulbs, 60/55 and 100/55.

Going to try and install without breaking anything, and maybe...

You can imagine how I sounded....seeing the yellow Hella boxes, happily digging through the packing (bought 55/60 and 55/100's) and finding......NO BULBS...

:sign0055:


Oh well, good day...

Oddly enough, everything showed up today, EXCEPT the bulbs....:mad:

Well, the housings and Putco harness finally shipped, should be here Monday.

I'll post an update as soon as I can.

Got to be the TruckLites, we use them on some....stuff at work, and I saw plenty of them on the MATV's and Humvees

I ordered Hella housings, Putco harness and a set of 60/55 and 100/55 bulbs, we'll see how they do.

The Putco harness and LMC harness look very close. Good point on the glass housings, I have the $$$ 3M headlight polishing kit, and while it does VERY well, you still have to do it.

Did you have...

So the Hella e-code versions have the sharp cut-off that seems to be so popular?

I think I saw where Quadratec had them....will any decent bulbs work?

So the XJ has 4x4 now, and with fall coming, looks like any wheeling will eventually have me in the dark. And even on this '99, the headlights are....:turd:

So, I know I need the harness,...
