Hey, crutchfield has stereos and the wiring etc. Sometimes they are as much as 30 percent higher in price, but you will narrow down your search quick. Also, I got some great LED headlights/fog/markers off Amazon. They work great and we're only 100 bucks.

Seems sketchy to offer such a large discount. I bought a set of LED headlights and fog lights on Amazon for less than $100. They’re super bright and have lasted 6 years.
Looks so much better!
Those headlights are just cheap ebay garbage. Get these guys.
DOT Approved 7'' Black LED... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KNXSIYS?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I got these for my JK and we’re super pleased with them. Great price and easy to install (I don’t consider myself highly mechanically gifted). Watched a few YouTube videos and installed them in about half an hour.
I’m not sure about the headlight brightness varying with the idle. Maybe that’s an early suggestion of needing a new battery or some other electrical issue? If that’s just a coincidence and it’s actually just flickering headlights, that’s normal for stock JK headlights if they’re a few years old and the anti-flicker harness is worn. You’d want to upgrade to some nicer LEDs anyway and you don’t have to break the bank, I got these soon after buying my JK and they’ve been great through the winter so far https://www.amazon.ca/Daymaker-Headlights-Lights-Wrangler-97-2016/dp/B01KNXSIYS/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=jk+headlights&qid=1609651806&sr=8-3
Nothing super fancy, these come with built in anti-flicker, plug into the existing electrical connection when you remove stock light headlights and fog lights, and have no additional turn-signal/colour/halo etc function. Just basic daytime running, night and high beam capability. Headlights + fog lights. I’ve had them for about a month and am happy with the additional light for something not overly expensive. I’m considering purchasing similar for taillights to get better lighting for reversing.
I rolled the dice and went the cheap route and I couldn't be happier.
They are bright as hell, one drawback is that the LEDs are not hot enough to melt heavy/wet snow. If you are driving in harsh conditions for a longer period of time at night, you may have to get out and wipe the headlights off. This will happen with most LED headlights that don't have lense heaters.
This is the reason I keep the halogens in the IPF fogs, just in case i need the light and I cant get out of the cab.
The customer service from the Amazon seller is excellent. I had a busted seal on one of the lights (Condensation on the inside after power washing) and I sent them a picture and they sent me a new set of headlights in 2 days for free. No problems so far with these new lights. The JW Speaker Headlights are $500+, these are $129. Some people say that you pay for what you get, and that true most of the time, but in my experience these lights are a bargain.
2016 Willy’s here headlights these are from amazon. Super easy to install plug n play and they work great. Only issue I had was when installing one of the fog lights the connection was backwards for some reason. Just flipped it and used some electrical tape to make sure the connectors didn’t separate. Also don’t forget to angle your headlights properly it will make a difference for you and other drivers. Cheers.
thanks!
actually i think the h4 conversion was rough country or something similar.
the LEDs i currently have are by LX-light.

note i'm not sponsored or paid by them. just sharing incase other jeepers needed a suggestion.
i think my only regret is.. my jeep has the oem style fog lights, And i bought the set thinking i'd replace them as well. i realize now, i want pencil beams low and a light bar for floods up front, instead of the fogs. i think i'll buy a small set of pencils, and move the fogs/driving lights low and to the back.
Here is the Amazon link to them. I dont have any night time pics but under the reviews on the product there is a couple pictures on there. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KNXSIYS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_zsJ4zb33JDKH5 The installation was easy enough, however i did end up having to replace the metal rings that hold the headlights in place because my factory ones had rusted out. The headlights and foglights come as a combo for $140
Got these on Amazon. They jwspeaker knock offs but they're pretty damn goodAmazon link.
Sure thing! This is the set I got.
When you go to install them, you'll probably find your fog lights don't work at all because the polarity is reversed on the fog light's connector. Instead of cutting wires and splicing like other reviews on Amazon recommend, you can use a very sharp set of tweezers to grasp on either side of the pin to disengage its lock, side it out of the connector, and swap the pins within the connector. If you have trouble doing this during the install, feel free to ping me.
The headlights snap into a couple grooves in the headlight assembly. You might find that they don't quite fit into the grooves, and if so, you'll have to file down the headlight (preferred, but removes the anti-rust coating), or modify the headlight assembly. I opted to file down the headlight, inserting it first from the bottom, and noting that the inner portions of the tabs were hitting the outside of the grooves. After a few tries, I got it to fit in snugly.
Also, since I have the AEV front bumper, I can't remove my grill. This wasn't an issue, I was able to unsnap it and get it sort of out of the way and do the install with it still hanging there.
Finally, don't forget to aim your headlights afterwards (and probably foglights, too; mine are a little bit low still). There are a bunch of good guides out there. I ended up aiming mine about 6 inches lower than recommended because I'm lifted 4.5" and I don't want to blind people as much when I pull up behind them in traffic.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01KNXSIYS I bought these and love them. Not flashy with all the colored leds and stuff. Just a regular LED with high beams and then fog lamps to compliment them. They work great.
Here ya go
I bought these 3 years ago and they’ve been great. Much brighter than stock. I have a couple pics on my profile that show them at night.
I have one of these, friend has another. Both are plug and play, much better light than stock with a nice cutoff and easily adjustable so you don’t blind other drivers. Both seem reliable so far. I don’t know off the top of my head if they’ll work with the JL, we both have JKs
I got these and like them. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KNXSIYS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_-ya5FbVCGMPCF Dont know about the ones with the ring
Best = JW Speaker. I have been running these for the past 2 years though with no issues and saved a lot of money - https://www.amazon.com/Approved-Headlights-Lights-Wrangler-97-2017/dp/B01KNXSIYS/
You might laugh, but I have these in my ‘15 JKU, I’ve had them in for over 2 1/2 years without issues. But, they don’t have the halos you’re looking for.
Quadratec makes a lot of solid Jeep stuff, including lights. I’d say get whatever you want and can afford, but read the reviews and for lights, check the description to make sure whether you need a PWM harness or if it’s built into the lights. JW Speakers are good, but $600+ for a pair of headlights that require an additional harness is stupid to me, when an identical set of lights on Amazon costs $120 bucks, has the PWM capacitor built in, and includes a matching pair of fog lights.
Edit: the link didn’t work, here are the lights I have:
