I'm looking at the JW Speaker LEDs... any reason you went with the Trucklites?

The newer heated Trucklites are a nice option too!

OOCustoms,

The JW's are not likely to fit without modification. http://real4x4forums.com/PinzgauerBBS/v ... 3&start=15

I tried to get a detailed mechanical drawing from them or even confirmation that the heatsink area is in conformance with a PAR56 but no
response. If you ain't a distributor I guess they think your too pipsqueak to bother with :(

IF you give it a try let us know how that worked out for you :wink: Was a tad too expensive of an experiment for my liking.

Oh! Post your location for us please :wink:

The JW Speaker lights are very nice, but do require modification of the buckets, at least the early 8700's I had, and I am told that even the newer 8700's require some mods.
The Truck Lites put out a nice bright white light, go in without messing with the buckets, and have a 3 year warranty....
