I have a JK and I felt that the OEM lamps were not much better than useless. My solution was to outright replace them with a set of Hella "Super 7 H4" 7" lamps, H4 halogen bulbs and a relay harness that run them right off the battery and to finish it off, the other set of headlamp aiming screws as would be found anywhere else in the world allowing both vertical AND horizontal aim adjustment. The stock H13 is a poor bulb, the stock lamp looks like it came off the discount rack at walmart and the canbus electrical system means the lamp is off something like 30% of the time, so chances are you are seeing it either heating up or cooling off, not in a steady and efficient state.
What I ended up with is smooth pool of glare free light on low beams and focused long range illumination with the high beams. With some aiming I keep the light off the mirrors of the cars in front of me in traffic and out of oncoming traffic with the high beams.
And I just have this to ask, when did it become cool and trendy to drive around with your high beams on in traffic or during the day? I understand when the guys with the zillion lumen LED light bars do it, we all have to acknowledge their superiority and desirability for mating but I'm talking about the mid size korean imports etc, do you not see the little blue high beam lamp? Do you not notice that the mirrors on the car in front are glaring back? Do you not notice that all the road signs sure are brighter today?
