J.W. Speaker Heated LED Headlight Kit for 84-01 Jeep Wrangler YJ, Cherokee XJ & Comanche MJ

I've had these for about a year and they work great! I was running the Hella conversions with upgraded bulbs prior and they didn't come close to the performance of these. The low beams work great in the fog and the high beams reach out there further than my Hellas did. You will need to re-aim your headlights slightly higher after install to get the low beam pattern correct. The extra red wire that turns on the little DRL bulb in the center also powers the lens heater. If you don't hook it up, the heater won't work, I hooked mine up to the marker light power wire. There's a little LED on the circuit board for the heater that lights up when the heater is on.

Purchased a pair for my 1999 Cheep Cherokee Sport SE. Replaced my standard halogen bulbs. Rusted screws prevented me from installing them myself so I had my local mechanics replace for me. New lights work great!. Huge difference even w/o using the highbeams. Night and day difference. They are expensive but they are definitely worth it especially when driving in burbs where street lighting is lacking. Waiting to see how the heated function works/handles snow.

So, first things first! The lights are amazingly bright and, IMHO, well worth the $$$. However, there were no instructions included, which is fine since FOR THE MOST PART THESE ARE A SIMPLE SWAP with the existing harness. However, the heated versions I received had an additional red wire that does not plug into the harness. What should I do with it? Is it required for the heated portion in winter? Red usually indicates a powered wire, but how do I know for certain? Should it be a switched power source? Should it be wired with an inline fuse? Should it be wired with a relay? Ultimately, I received an answer from JWSpeaker, "You can ignore the red wire unless you want DRLs." Still not enough info...suppose I DO want DRLs, some guidance is pertinent given that these things cost a small fortune that I wish I'd put into a new bumper or lift! All in all, excellent lights but poor customer communication. Much time was wasted searching their website to only fail to find any information. The Truck Lites might be a better deal since they cost less money for similar output. Now I have to figure out how to wire up DRLs and I get to repeat the process...again!
