Subscribed. I'm looking at doing this on my '12 Sahara, so I'm interested to see how this plays out.

I thought this was a problem with the jeep supplying a pulse width modulation signal to the lights and not a steady power source.

You will need to look on the forums for the capacitor/resistor mod. Once you splice in some resistors... it'll be fine.

I do recommend that you retrofit some projectors to keep the lights from blinding other people.
