I love the concept of these, I had turning headlights on an old BMW and it was helpful.
Full disclosure, I tried gabbing up my own out of sheet metal but it was too “springy” and rubbed the driver tire. Took a lot of time, too. Should’ve just ordered the gatekeeper but I was trying to make one that set the light lower and wouldn’t be blocked by the bumper?
Lol I have the adaptive lighting on my gti granted it only works below 30 mph but it makes a huge difference.

IMO the price they ask isn’t bad for what they are.

It is nice to see them mounted on the vehicle. What tools did it take to remove the hardware that you needed to remove, anything special?
Also they look awesome!!

Looks good, I would just be worried about hitting the coil spring how close they are to it.

Looks nice does the kc come with different colored rings or an option to get different colors/paint them.

If you look on there website there is a couple of videos on how to install the brackets, lights and how they run the wiring.

After seeing them mounted on the Jeep picture that is posted I think that is the way to go. And your right it`s not a lot of money especially for something that is a "special" application

Thanks for the heads up and enlightening me, could not resist......
Also on eBay without lights $119.00 or $192 with lights.

I know where I get my powder coating done at they charge a min of 150. So these coming powder coated is a really good price.

Sadly I feel I’m talking myself into purchasing even more, I guess I’ve wasted more money on other mods that won’t be as nice or useful. ?

The Gatekeeper is a great product, and he stands behind his work. I had a very early set that developed a stress fracture, called him and replacements arrived fast! The 2nd set was much thicker. I get questions about them all the time. Highly recommend the company and product.

After seeing them on the Jeep I am going to order a set, one thing I did notice on the eBay ad it stated " Now works with stock wheels" they are sold by Baja Racing Supply

In there website it also says now works with stock wheels, I’m thinking eBay seller is a reseller gatekeeper located in Cali, and the eBay add shows Arizona.

They have different color options for the rings.
Standard KC yellow, black, red and blue.
You can absolutely paint them to match on your own.
