Zambeezy Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Mine went in fine. Check for petrified bulb grease in the bulb sockets. Ended up returning mine and ordering a new pair of bulbs. They went on perfectly and 5 minutes later I had them installed and the housings back on the truck Just in case anyone else is having a hard time installing them, it appears the lugs are occasionally in the wrong spot which makes it impossible to install the bulb.

jpnjim Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Just wanted to post up I bought a set of these tail lights after reading this thread (thanks Don!) and they're working great for me too. I wanted to brighten up the front end too so I got a set of these headlights; https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M09C7Q8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Super bright, but kinda on the blindy side for on coming traffic. .....just to add in my 2c here :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, No DOT markings. I aimed them down a bit to try to take some of the glare away, and they do have a pretty good beam "cut off", but I think they're still too bright to oncoming traffic. My MJ is a glorified yard truck at the moment, so I'll leave them in for now, till I find something decent that isn't so blinding to other cars.

And at $50 to ship to Canada they can shove the bulbs up their rearend sideways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyComanche Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Also, Grote now sells DOT approved LED headlights that will fit our trucks, and apparently they're pretty good. No link because I'm lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazon doesn't seem to have good reviews.. and at $220 each I think I will take my chances with the $60 per pair non DOT https://www.amazon.com/Grote-90951-5-Sealed-Beam-Headlights/dp/B00QB0CCU4 Summit has good reviews though https://www.summitracing.com/parts/gte-90951-5 If I go legit DOT LED, ill probably buy trucklite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A smart choice. Have both the Trucklites and the LED reverse lights installed. Very pleased with both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeanLemons Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I don't like those reverse bulbs. I bought it when I first got my MJ. Broke one of them while gingerly putting it in the socket. The other one went in just fine but it didn't last a week before it burned out. Had to put in regular bulbs to pass inspection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try cleaning the crud and rust out of your sockets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The build quality isn't that great in the first place though. I ll be tossing the lights out eventually anyway so I'm not too worried about the OEM lights for now.

What can you expect from two bulbs from China for less than $20. They are still working in my truck amazingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
