They are not standard on any model and are part of a £750.00 pack here in the UK![]()
Me too. This is a Jeep, folks. The retro lights are effective and platform-appropriate.Actually, I like the lights pictured on the left picture in the first post (the Anvil colored car).
Rarely the case with modern European cars. Most of the time the wiring (and, sometimes even the physical plugs) and computer coding are different, with the latter being the more challenging workaround (or, if you're like me, the more challenging problem to set up the way the factory intended).Wouldn't these just plug in?
Usually, low option cars have the higher optioned car wiring harness with the empty plugs left hanging.
I find it hard to believe the factory would make a completely different wiring harness for one option as simple as a different headlight..
Depends. With CAN-BUS architecture, everything electrical is tied into the system. This makes retrofitting a headache as non-standard systems can't integrate/interface with the system and throw all shorts of error codes. A friend found this out the hard way, expensively, while trying to upgrade his girlfriend's VW TDI Sportwagon.Wouldn't these just plug in?

Who and what is your source for this info? I've never seen such a claim.Jeep will make it a special edition headlight soon for US .not only the headlight euro have Paddle Shifters to if i'm right .

For me, it's not so much about looks. Having owned cars with conventional and Xenon headlights, the latter provides much better contrast and visibility at night. Plenty of Wrangler owners who do go off road retrofit Xenons to replace their factory halogen units. Enough so that there is a booming market for such kits. Light output and cut-off from well made projectors are superior to parabolic reflector. Period.Me too. This is a Jeep, folks. The retro lights are effective and platform-appropriate.
The cutesy X's and other garb is getting tacky.
So a great question is are the Renegade Headlights the same as the Wrangler that the Wrangler Kits can be used or are they different so we would have to wait for someone to come up with a Renegade kit?For me, it's not so much about looks.

Yah I've been wondering the same. Are they the same diameter? depth? how are they mounted in the Renegade? Is there a factory service manual floating around out there already?So a great question is are the Renegade Headlights the same as the Wrangler that the Wrangler Kits can be used or are they different so we would have to wait for someone to come up with a Renegade kit?
Is not from jeep but i'm just saying look at wrangler it come out so many EditionWho and what is your source for this info? I've never seen such a claim.
In theory they should, but the Euro spec lights would be aimed/angled differently to account for RHD. You'd have to flip them upside down for a better viewing angle here in the US (or somehow adjust the angle, etc.).Wouldn't these just plug in?
