Pretty happy with the results.

I’m thinking about those too in the same location. Is that the driving beam?

If you have a chance, please post some pictures in the dark. I’m trying to see if there is a dead spot directly in front of the jeep with the driving beam mounted in that location. Thanks.

These are the spot pattern which are used as "deer watchers" when driving so they are splayed out a little from center. I liked the cubes (also spot pattern) and they did pretty good being used as a supplement to the high beams with more focus at the edges of the road into the forest. Honestly say they worked a few times spotting deer sooner than if I just had the high beams. One may ask - if they worked "why change", well, part of me wanted even more light and a better aesthetic look (round vs square). Also didn't want a light with a bunch of LED's in them like the Slimlite. The Pro 6 are a nice match to the factory LED headlight and fog light. Did quite a bit of research and here is one of the videos that helped guide me amongst the many that are out there:

That is a heck of a spot pattern. Which cubes are those?

I have the same ones! They’re driving pattern just like those. Throw a heck of a lot of light. Thinking about getting the amber translucent cover to give them some more functionality. Here’s a pic:

Regular height

They have a neat look to the back of them. I will also say wiring is nice and simple, ran included harnesses but cut and soldiered to correct lengths. It’s a two way orange waterproof harness at the light if you’re checking for similarity to just change the light and not re-wire.

Right on. The wiring is great. The previous KC cubes wiring worked great in the upgrade being it was already wired into my Aux 3 switch. So just had to uninstall the cubes and install the newer lights. The only thing that was different is the tail of the Pro 6 is not as long so the connection sits outside and not underneath/inside the cowl panel.

Yeah that was annoying but it would make it easy for a quick uninstall if ever needed I guess.

They are the KC C-Series C3 lights.

Now you can add the smiley face covers! I'm running the same plus two more on the bumper.

I have them in the driving beam on my JK mounted at A-pillar. I can get some pics tonight of them but to answer your question I don't get a dead spot right in front when my headlights are turned on. When my headlights are off the way I have aimed them there is a dead spot.

Just some advice on the amber cover as I have it with them. It dramatically reduces light output and I dont ever see myself using it on the A pillar but I live in texas where we never get snow and I bet in the snow they would help. I can get some pictures tonight.

I’m glad you mentioned that. I was hoping they would act as “diffusers” so they aren’t so blinding if traffic comes head on, as they are aimed directly at an oncoming driver

Not sure if diffuser is the best word as they don't alter the pattern at all just make it dimmer. And I'm sure you know but never leave them on if there is any visible oncoming traffic.
