The 240's are about 3" bigger around and about twice as bright.

I went with the KC 130w 6" LR Slims; I did the install about a month ago.
I wanted the up-and-in look, but wasn't sure if the KC brackets had foam gaskets to protect the paint, so I went with the Rugged-Ridge ones.

Firewall:

I popped off the dash side panel on the driver side, poked a coat-hanger through the foam insulation, and pulled the wires through.
I put my switch above the driver-side speaker, like most people in this thread have been doing. I ran the wires [under the hood] through flexible plastic conduit which I bought at my local hardware store (to keep the wires clean and the look stock).


To run the wires to the brackets, I removed the panel that covers with wiper motor. I haven't seen any other pictures of this posted, and it may not be necessary to remove this panel if you just want to snake the wires under it without using conduit.

Lights:



Why so serious?

I don't have any other action shots, because it's not exactly easy to take pictures while navigating trails in the dark (while steering and shifting); but I'm happy with the power of these lights, and there's no glare on the hood. If someone has a request for more pictures to aid their install, you can PM me, and I'll see what I can do.

I also bought a shorty antenna (8"), because if the stock antenna gets knocked around by brush, it rubs on the lights and makes some rather annoying clanging sounds.

Now I think I'm going to get some LightForce 170s for my front bumper.

I received the KC Slimlites and KC brackets. The covers that came with the lights have the large KC logo on them instead of the smaller KC. I kind of wish the smaller version was included. Anyone know if the smaller KC version is still available. The large more scripty sytle draws too much attention.

I also found no gaskets for the brackets. I ended up making a template and cutting gaskets out of a piece of rubber roofing material.

When I ordered mine from Quadratec, the pictures showed the smaller lettering, so when they arrived with the large lettering (different from what I was shown) I wasn't pleased, and considered sending them back. However, after the initial shock, I like them very much. You could spray the lettering black (would take all of 5 minutes).

It looks like NorthRidge sells the old covers, but I don't know if you can trust the pictures:

I know it's perspective, but they look almost the same size as your STEERING WHEEL!

I have the exact same setup....even same switch location! I love mine.

Lets see about the OP's questions:
1. Pics can come tomorrow, but its the same as jeepnoob.
2. Using Rugged Rudge light mounts (i like them cause they are pretty solid and come with a nice foam backing.....no paint scratching)
3. KC 6" slimine (black) 130watt
4. Mounted switch same as jeepnoob.

I was pleasantly surprised as there is very little glare off the hood, not saying i cant clearly see the hood with them on, but very comfortable to drive with.

Different covers will make them even better.

I like the combo covers myself.

look at the smittybilt brackets they are way cheaper and sit low like the mopars.

Jkrazed what are those gold looking lights and do they come in other colors?


Does anyone have an idea how I could get some lights like his only with a tint of green to match my green neon accents??

I thought of celephane but I thought it would melt.

you must run a tanning salon infront of your jeep, right?
where would those ever be needed? and how much do they weigh?
