looks killer! i've always wanted to make a set like the casablanka but don't have the skills.

have you thought about color matching the panel with the rest of the xj?

oh, and did you have to modify anything behind the panel? like brackets and stuff?

LOL.....that made me actually laugh out loud.

I like the round lights, but would tint the ambers a bit so they don't stand out as much.

Nice job....that's the only round-light conversion I've seen that I like. How long did it take?


*edit* whoops, nvm...saw it took 40 hrs....great job, once again...

Great start, needs something. Tinting the amber turn signals would be a good start.

What happened to the CJ? What kinda condition was it in?
