Hmmm. Ithought I posted them. Here you go.

Same drill as before. Manual mode, 1/5 of a second at F5.6, 1250 ISO.

Here are the stock high beams: :thumbdown:


Here is the XMitter bar: :2thumbsup: :2thumbsup: :2thumbsup: :cheers2:


Keep in mind, now... below is a photo when I was running 2 off-road HID lights:


The XMItter is just so much cleaner and more even.

I love the difference between your OEM highbeams and the XMitter Bar; you can really see the difference in the houses across the pond. If for no other reason, I need one of these just to piss off my prick of a neighbor!

Default Hmm...

As I am still overseas (12 DAYS LEFT!), I have no idea how tall the grill slats on the JK actually are. However, I'm thinking an XIL-200 (12") XMitter bar recessed-mounted (flush) into each outboard grill slat.

It would have to be researched a little more as I have no idea how much heat they produce nor if they would block a significant amount of air to the radiator (both possibly contributing to overheating). Their light output might also be blocked some if you have a winch bar on your bumper.
Just thoughts floating around in my head

well considering it would cost a weee bit over $7 grand for lights ...that would look pretty sick...... oh ya im pretty sure it would overheat the engine real quick

How did your pictures end up in an ad for the 12" light bar????

Holy crap! I sent them to Vision X since I bought direct from them (law enforcement). In fact, I posted a review on my website and Vsion X has it on their testimonials page. Anyways - I thought that was really cool. I did the review because I couldn't find one of the XMitter bar before I bought mine.

However - the photo was taken with the 42" light bar and I really don't like the fact they represent that much light output with the 12" light bar. That's not Vision X's doing, however... Magnalight needs to correct that. The 12" only puts out 1/4 of the light as the 42".
