Review on 🚦 2007-2017 J eep Wrangler JK Smoked Side Maker Lights - Amber Bulb Indicator Lens for Front Fender Flares - Turn Lamp Parking Upgrade by Kenneth Barnes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good lights good for lighting and accessories

Good lights. The plastic is more brittle than I would like. Something else made out of rubber composite would be very useful. The problem lies in the design of the Jeep JK, as it turned out, both good and bad. The flashlight fits in a pocket between the plastic in the fenders. One headlight fitted perfectly, the other I couldn't mount on the lower clips, but I don't think this is due to the headlights. I think that the plastic of the wing does not fit in thickness. So I think rubber composites are better for lightweight braces. It would be more forgiving of jeep problems. If you can get the clips out and salvage, the light still gets stuck between the two layers of Jeep fender plastic, and it's a pretty tight grip indeed. INSTALLATION TIP: All videos show attempting to push out a pin in a fender rivet with a hex wrench. It's almost impossible BUT if you insert a really small hex bit into the screwdriver the pin will pop out with a little effort on the handle. Twist the pin back so the flanges are flat and pull out. You may need a flathead screwdriver to pry it out. I'll try to place the rivet when reinstalling. Just twist and insert. Then use a couple of locks to slide the pin back through the rivet to lock it in place. The side rivet is a little more difficult to install. I used a flathead screwdriver to line up the pin and used channel locks to assemble it. Looks great.
