JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

What was done to your JK this week?

Pale, I chose the white because it's clearer. When I turned them on it felt like I was looking at an HD tv instead of a standard component tv. Remember it's all about your on taste. I love the new look now. If you want more info on which bulb I bought I eBay, I can send you the link if you like.

I was genuinely curious, so thanks for the response. It's simply my understanding that yellow is better for actual fog, snow, rain, etc, so I'm trying to figure out if that's really the case before I upgrade mine. I have both white and yellow H3 bulbs (and the H3 casing) sitting here while I try to decide which one to use. LOL

A link would be great, thanks!

Pale, yeah yellow is great for fog, but it does depend on where you live. I'm in South Florida, there isn't much fog down here so I don't have a problem running my 5k white bulbs on my KC's and running my HID's on the headlights and fogs. I found the link for you. I say give your white bulbs a try, and if you don't like it to much then switch back to the yellow. Just as easy at that. Here's the link:

Hope this helps.

If the link doesn't appear it's because on my cell lol

Awesome, thanks! I guess you're right, the easiest thing to do well be to try the white first. Then, after the first fog or snowfall, I'll switch the out if they don't work well enough.

I'm moving my vacuum pump under the hood next week, so swapping the bulbs in an out should be easy as hell after that.

Went out to the garage this morning. Jump in the Jeep, turn the key...AND 'click' Clock reads 12:00..summa beotch. dead battery. $126 later, I threw in a new Bosche battery. I really wanted a Optima Red Top, but the timing is off to throw $200 into a battery.

Well it's not mine that I worked on, it was my wife's. Mine is the white one. What I have done to hers is 3.5 lift, 35x12.50r17 on black steelies. Made her a lot happier with it.

Went in for an oil change and left with new (to me) Aries bumpers. While I was waiting on mine to be serviced I was looking at another guys heavily modded jeep and ended up buying them off his jeep in the dealership parking lot. A few beers later here they are. I'll put up better pics in the daylight.
