Im pretty negative on these companies claiming they have JL headlights. They are literally the same phillips knockoffs you can get for 100 a pair for the JK's with a bracket to adapt to the JL's.... you can now buy the brackets online.

total scam imo.

Visual reference for those wondering, 7" JW Speaker Evo J2. Headlight opening in the grille measures about 7.5" FYI.

Quake LED all the way, will cost you a nice chunk of change but for sure an amazing upgrade. plus the halo had tons of functions and can be made any color you desire

I mounted 7" lights with an adapter bracket. The trim of the standard 7" headlight fully fills the opening in the factory grill, which is about 7.5" over a factory 9" headlight with no trim ring. No issues. It actually mated just about perfectly, IMHO, more attractive than the factory offering, which has no trim ring.

Any pics of that set?

These are Inspired Engineering. They were very easy to install and work great. They're a huge improvement over the stock halogens.

I've got my eyes on these because they're closest to OEM LED design. They're not out yet but the company said it should be readily available sometime early next year.

you can find them on Alibaba right now, they are only 7 inches, and require a bracket adapter like all the other ones out so far. Im holding out until the bracket drops to like 20 bucks in the next couple months on amazon

Well, they are not identical. They are 7" with a bracket. The OEM ones are 9" now on the JLs.

From their website:
Yeah no way Im paying these companies 500+ dollars when you can find the exact same headlight for a JKU for like 100-150 on Amazon and buy the brackets for 80. They are fleecing people right now... including sponsors here on the board.
