Can someone answer how these are mounted? Take pics of brackets?

What do the lights actually mount too? Did you have to fabricate brackets?

Thanks,

CUSTOM INGENUITY... rockcrawler here appears to have fab'd brackets that screw into the headlight housing & to the fender/front clip core support

kosmik probably did it differently... & i'm positive there's 103 different ways to do it

i assume alignment is a bit more of a task, since the spring adjusters are eliminated (?)

where did you get the headlight conversion ?

From a Commander? Salvage yard or ebay?

There are also these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/310476183929 if you want the look without work. The only thing they are missing are "evil eyes".

However, I doubt the optics are any good.

THEY ARE FROM A JEEP COMMANDER. Which part of that do you not understand?

Ok so you have to give up either low or high beams to use for blinkers? Am I reading this right? Are there a lot of wiring changes to make tues work or will the stock stuff work? I'm not very good with auto electrical.

Also what is the XK hid's. And will this work with the older style front end?

I am interested in seeing more on the fitment of the lights, required cutting, mounting options. bumps along the way?
I know its an old post, but I am considering this option. it looks so good on a stock XJ.


so if anyone happens to know of an informative thread. thanks

Hello all new here, I got hooked on kosmiks look and decided to give it a shot.. its only a header panel and Iam back to stock, I like it, its different. I HAD to keep them in the header panel its just sitting in there in this pic. not mounted just floating. I know these will never be aimed correctly. but to each their own

Looks pretty cool.
I'd like to see any pics (or even drawings) of how you put it together, even the back of the light-assembly.

BTW - I hear they are self-aiming lights, so maybe they will be 'aimed correctly'?
