Jakesjeepmj1988 Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 hello guys, i scored a 4 headlight wagoneer front for a mj and the light's metal bucket that it sits in is rusted to pieces and those special adjustment screws are destroyed. i am having the hardest time finding replacements for these parts any input would be awesome thanks.
dasbulliwagen Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 You might try some body shops. They usually have special suppliers that get them small parts like adjusters and things like that to repair stuff with.
Eagle Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 You may like the look of the Waggy grille, but you WON'T like the lighting. Those headlights are smaller than the usual quad headlamps, and they give off about as much light as a single candle on a birthday cake.

88whitemanche Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 Look what I found and by cruiser putting up the links...scroll down to see the links cruiser put up for the quad headlights in the wagineer header.... http://www.cherokeeforum.com/f2/headlight-upgrades-151217/
ftpiercecracker1 Posted December 3, 2014 Posted December 3, 2014 It's true that the Wagoner headlights suck, but cleaning up the wiring harness and connectors helps a lot. If you really want to get adventurous you could also set up a few relays to run your high and low beams together. This is how mine are and they are surprisingly bright. At some point I would like to either upgrade the bulbs all together or get a second set of high beams to replace the low beams so that I have single high beams or double high beams to select from.
HOrnbrod Posted December 3, 2014 Posted December 3, 2014 You may like the look of the Waggy grille, but you WON'T like the lighting. Those headlights are smaller than the usual quad headlamps, and they give off about as much light as a single candle on a birthday cake. Easy fix, but costs a few Benjamins. Painless and others sell the 4-lamp H4 relay harness (or make your own), and www.rallylights.com still sell the small H4 rectangular housings. Outfit them with the H4 bulbs of your choice. Easy - peasy and great lighting.
joester1908 Posted December 3, 2014 Posted December 3, 2014 I have a Wagoneer header panel on my Comanche. It bolts right in. The headlights aren't as bright as the regular XJ/MJ, but they're decent. Your best bet is going to junk yards and looking for them. No one (that I have found) makes replacement parts. And eBay wants an arm and a leg for parts. Also, if you swap, half the people are gonna say "what an ugly grill!" or "Love the Jeep, ditch the grill!". I personally like it so I don't really care. Hahah Here's my MJ
benjy_26 Posted December 3, 2014 Posted December 3, 2014 ^^^ Killer Jeep! You may want to do something about that grill, though. J/K I dig that look.
joester1908 Posted December 3, 2014 Posted December 3, 2014 88whitemanche, (can't quote on school computer) thanks for the link! Those newegg "Headlights Non-Sealed H4701/H4703 Headlights" are exactly what I've been looking for.
benjy_26 Posted December 3, 2014 Posted December 3, 2014 ^^^ Let me get home, but I THINK I have a set of 4 that thake H4 bulbs sitting in my house. We can work something out if you like.
joester1908 Posted December 3, 2014 Posted December 3, 2014 a set of H4? Let me know, that would be awesome!
