Budget LED Headlights- True Mods 9" LED headlights

[TheDerb]

I wanted to make a quick post about True Mods 9" LED headlights. My wife has a '24 JL Sport S. It's her first 2 door, and she's doing a lot of leg work on upgrades- but she finds things like headlight upgrades to be a practical necessity, and isn't worried about DRLs are halos or any of the other features that tend to increase costs. I agree with her on that front.

She bought the True Mods 9" round LEDS, and I installed them for her.

They come with a DRL if you want it, but it isn't required in TN, so I just electrical taped off the connector to be overly safe. These things are completely plug and play- remove the grill (6 plastic clips at the top with a screwdriver and pull out the clips at the bottom), unscrew the 3 hex head screws in each light. Disconnect the plug. Attach the plug to the new lights, screw in the 3 screws to attach the lights, replace your grill, and voila. They were perfectly aimed for her stock height JL Sport S.

I liked them so much that I bought a set for my '23 Gladiator Rubicon that I just installed this morning. I was originally going to go with Oracle, but I can do a whole lot with $400, so I decided to go with True Mods. I installed them today at 4am so I could test the height of the beam- I don't want to cause anybody to go blind. I am lifted 2.5". There are 3 adjustment screws (5.0mm hex). 2 on the bottom, 1 on the top. I proactively wanted them as low as possible, because my halogen headlights had to be set as low as possible after my lift. I let the top screw out all the way, and fastened the bottom 2 screws as much as the limited clearance will allow. I installed them in less than 30 minutes start to finish, and the test drive was successful in the patch black- I wasn't blinding anybody.

I could probably adjust them up perfectly, but they are good enough for me and I am not concerned that one may throw the beam an inch higher than the other at 100'.

The high beams are super impressive as well. I could not be happier for the $250 I paid for them.

Overall, I give them a 10/10, and this may be one of the best "budget" purchases I've made.

I installed the same lights a couple of weeks ago.
I ordered the Oracles, had them in my house and returned the box unopened because I decided to get some other stuff with the savings by getting the True Mods. I don't mean to deride other products but as of now, I don't see what the $400 gets you when you buy the Oracles that everyone loves. The only way to upgrade these would be to get them heated for snow or the colors and dancing lights some people like.

(Hooking up the DRLs takes 3-5 minutes.)

Cool! Check back after a year so we can see if they keep working well.

I love how you attached some photos of this incredible mod.

I know it’s an older post but what version of the headlight did you order. I see two different versions on the website. Also any photos of them down the road shinning.

I'm thinking of buying a set of these soon. I'm interested in any feedback on how well they hold up over the longterm?
