Sure, didn't think of it in that way... at least the OP knows what to look for. :cheers2:
That's the most important part. I would have typed it out but I was at work as well when I saw it.

Oman has a set of these "boobie lights". They are XE7s and are made by company called xsighting systems. I can't find their website at this time however.

I had the "boobie" headlights for close to 7 years... unfortunately they're discontinued now. They were made by a company called Xsighting with the parent company Valeo Sylvania - a big OEM supplier. When the economy crisis hit, Xsighting was shut down.

I just recently changed to the JW Speaker headlights - which have a much flatter factory-like appearance. They are LED not HID, and are really bright with a great beam pattern.

Here it is with the "boobie" lights:

And here's the JW Speaker Lights (although mine are Harley Branded, they are made by JW speaker and just take a bit of cutting to make them fit, but at least I could buy them locally :) )

The Oman jeep, that **** is sick :thumbsup:

Buddy of mine did the HIDProjector deal, but the understated version without all the halo crap. He painted his inner shroud to match body color, but everything else in there is black. They look and work fantastic, but he had all kinds of nightmares with them...they got some bad plastic that melted from an American supplier, then went back to their chineze source for the good stuff :shhh:

Nobody makes them like that anymore
The so called "boobie" lights?

There's nowhere to get them from - that I could find.

I was searching everywhere for the 5-3/4" versions of their flatter light (reflector style, not projector) for my '59 Cadillac. Anyone that had stock of that brand has sold out long ago.

That's when I tried the JW Speaker lights in the Caddy, and liked the performance more than the HID's so swapped the Jeep over too. My recommendation - go for the JW Speaker lights. Just got an e-mail today that Quadratec carries them so you could get them from there - http://www.quadratec.com/vendor/J.W.+Speaker/

I'll have to check it out, I mean is it what it is.
I'm new to the Jeep Atmosphere so will have lots of questions, not sure what companies are out there, or even good places to buy stuff (websites and whatnot) you know

Prepare to drop $800. I know I will be someday, but I have a few (a lot) of suspension things to get done before I can pursue JW Speakers.
I hear that!
I have a list myself, I'm just trying to go through my list and get prices of things and find out where to purchase, and best place to purchase as well
Kinda like window shopping right now ha

Quadratec also lets you build up a wish-list tied to your log-in - which is a pretty cool way to window shop. :)

But while Quadratec has all kinds of good bolt on things it doesn't carry all of the good stuff. Definitely helps to spend time reading and researching and looking in to some of the "smaller" brands that make some of the specialty parts, like MetalCloak, Currie, Savvy, OffRoadOnly etc etc that can do more for you if you go direct to them...

Spend time with Google, and with the forum's search functions. :thumbsup:
I hear ya, my point is tho is I wanted feedback for this particular thing hense the reason I made the thread...then of course you have the trolls with their stupid comments "google is your friend"
Like I didn't search or anything before making this thread...c'mon we all have a wish list
I didn't post my entire wish list in this thread and say...where do I get all this stuff!!!

Again tho, thanks so much for your feedback Oman Jeep, you've been a big help
Cheers my friend :)
