Default Sylvania Silverstar headlight bulbs

Well, as everyone says, my 2013 Wrangler headlights are "poop!" So I put the Sylvania's Replacement $40 a pair lights in.
In my opinion they are much better. They have that nice white look. They look like stock headlights d hould look like.
Offcourse, I will probably someday put some leds in but at least i feel better. You know, if Jeep only had a good headlight option. Id pay for it! So for $40, I feel ok - sort of a sad commentary.

I use these too. Can't beat the cost for the much brighter/whiter light they put out. Also retro-fit some ultras to use in my OE fog housings. Nice bulbs.

You could always go with the IPF housings and use those bulbs for an even bigger improvement.

Buy or build a harness that connects the lights to the battery as the power source. Much better! Don't let the whiter light fool you into thinking they are putting out more light. The weak power source is a big problem.
Replace the headlights with Hella H4 Euro models. Way better!
Throw in some 80/100W bulbs and the light is a huge improvement.

Check out a kit from Ralleylights.com. I paid $215 for the whole setup. The harness will come in handy for the upgrade to LED.
