I take back what I said about the Autopals being high quality. When I took out my left one to plug in the harness, I noticed that the seal between the glass and the reflector is disintegrating, like it's been degraded by the heat. I think I will replace them with Hellas.
Those are nice. I have a friend with DOT hellas with silverstars and theyre pretty good, and I have a friend with a TJ with hella ecode housings and IPFs and theyre bright as hell and have a great pattern.
Just a heads up - you won't be getting a really good idea of which is best with a car jump starting pack unless you have it charging while you do the test, because it won't be outputting the same 13.8 to 14.5 volts your XJ's system puts out while driving.

Hmmmm, on their website it says:
"The Heavy Duty models are 14 gauge and use 2 relays (each relay can handle 260 watts) while the Super Heavy Duty model uses 4 relays."
Yet I see no where on the site to specify which one you want. I only see different choices for different bulb types.
Just to make sure...1 kit does both lights? Correct?
JOhn
That's to protect other drivers from glare I would think. Keeps them from being exposed to the undirected light coming directly from the filament, results in all the light bouncing off the parabolic/hyperbolic/whatever other funky shape reflector and to the spot it's supposed to go.
I got my Hella lamps. They have the metal cup inside though, that goes in front of the bulb. I remember reading about them but I can't remember what the purpose is. Are they to make the bulbs conform with US regulations by scattering more light willy nilly, or are they to protect other drivers from glare?
