raviolli Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 just thinking ahead of myself again. as far as aftermarket lights mounted on the bumper/grille area (stock bumper), i can't decide which i like better.....square/rectangular lights or round ones. if i can ever get my hands on a roll bar, i know exactly how i want my lights set up, but on the front end, its hard to visualize. i wanna see lots and lots of pics to help me make up my mind! i know about 85% of you guys out there have some lights mounted. let me know your opinions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadinator Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Personally for me, I like rectangular ones on a MJ / XJ because of the rectangular grills and square headlights. I think they go better. I like round ones on TJ's for the same reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParadiseMJ Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I have to agree. I've had rectangles on my XJ forever...it just figured. I bought round KC's for my MJ and took them straight back to the store after I held them up there. Just didn't look right....but everybodys got their own idea of what looks good.

raviolli Posted November 23, 2011 Author Share Posted November 23, 2011 thats what i was thinking too....but ive seen some good round ones as well. i guess it depends on if theres a brush guard or grille guard or anything like that. if i had a roll bar, id go with two big round ones (one on either side - furthest out) and probably four rectangular evenly spaced between them. but then id want a grille guard with maybe two round ones. the really simple looking guards that i see on here alot....you know, just a rectangle that covers the grille and nothing more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMCJeepMJ Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 IMO rectangular lights look best for bumper mount. If you have an aftermarket bumper with grill guard, then round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Bruchal Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Could you swap head lights from a tj/jk in to the mj/jk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rymanrph Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I vote rectangular on the bumper too. I have decided if I'm going to go rectangular or round on my roll bar though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComancheKid45 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 On the 88 MJ, its Square below the headlights and round above The XJ and 90 MJ, its Squares all around I definently am a fan of aux. lighting :wrench: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hick92 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I'm wanting 3 kc round slim lights on the roll bar and 2 kc slim lights on the brush guard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harley Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 On an 87 I use to have I had the rollbar w/lights and on the front bumper I had the rectangular dark amber fog lights in front of the grill and under the bumper on the ends I mounted the low profile clear lights. they were something like 4" or so long by about 2" tall. With that setup the lighting was wonderful at night. Unfortunatly I do not have any pics, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirteatr717 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I Have round on the bumper and on the rollbar, as long as they work I don't care what shape they are :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raviolli Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 this is helping a lot with my decision :cheers: thanks for all the pics I'm really liking the round lights anywhere above the headlights. and the grille guard on that red XJ is exactly what i was talking about and dirteatr717 - i really like that rollbar....you should get the lights working :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
