- The H4 Headlight Daylight Harness changes the principle the headlights operate on. One of the easiest and most beneficial upgrades I have ever done, right up there with the Azzy 4x4 linkage

Fantastic video, and I can also say after doing this upgrade using the same kit I'm very pleased.. I also upgraded the bulbs to Philips Racing vision GT200, Perfect for the dark and bendy Irish back roads...
Amazing video dude, im doing this asap, keep making Jeep vids!
Dude the music made this vid !! Thank you
do you recognize it from somewhere?
I did this upgrade a year ago (even made a video still haven’t edited it yet) it really makes them so much brighter!! Now I can’t upload my video because I’ll look like a copy cat
doesn't pay to procrastinate
looks like a great upgrade
Yeah you gotta do it on yours!
I did not realize they had an over doubling of brightness, ill be getting one of these thats for sure!
also engagement comment, may your videos show up in random peoples recommended XD
your narration is best. very unique / funny / informative
EDIT: yeah, same- don't really like LEDs either... like jfc, some of those things shouldn't be legal -they are blinding to the person coming towards you
Rest in pepperoni Jimbo mobile 😢
Nice upgrade. I agree it is one of the best I’ve ever done. 👍
Another option is to replace the lights bulbs with Philips Led Ultinon Pro6000 for the stock looks. Street legal in Europe and about 1/3 lower on power consumption. But snow and frost on the lenses does not melt easier.
Nice video !!! I used the same harness on my xj with led headlights , what a difference !
Best thing l ever did was replace sealed beams with Hella H4 E-code housings, with LED bulbs. Looks stock and brighter than many modern cars. The E-codes are key, though. Way better light pattern than DOT.
Great video as always!
Another banger from Weamid as usual
Awesome upgrade! I like the fact it’s plug and play no need to splice. Amazing difference before and after. Pretty big price difference between the jeep cables and eBay. I did not know there was an issue with melting from the stock setup. Thanks for great video I am definitely adding it to my upgrade project list.
Looks like a great upgrade. Good job!
Amazing video as always.
Yesss. My 98 got the relay (from K Suspension here in Nampa, he trades ammo for parts) , H4s and glass that looks OG.
Guess I'm following this video when I go to reinstall mine
Great video, Didnt know it would make such a difference and is so easy to install, added to the list
As usual, very informative video!
Nevertheless: I've heard rumors that the halogen bulbs tend to burn out faster using this mod; I'm curious if this will happen; just keep us posted.
I can see that, with more power going through them they burn hotter, which does wear out light bulbs faster. That is a valid concern and I'll keep y'all posted. New halogen bulbs are like $10 a piece at least
Yes, that is true, but most vehicles are wired this way using a relay directly off the battery. So they should last as long as any other kind of car with halogen bulbs.
What a wacky way to adjust the lights, but it does seem to be a pretty good way to do it, also seems you'll always run into something wrong to happen, with that adjustment screw coming off. RIP Jimbo-Mobile
the stack of tape measures on the hood killed me dude
Perfect timing my headlight switch just started acting screwy
is there any particular reason it would be originally wired to the dash switch directly ? just amc things?
Wait wait you just blew right by those lift support need to know brother
Hood Struts? I got the video linked in the description
Great video and upgrade! What tire size are you running on those stock wheels? Looks more meaty than mine.
the tires are 235/75R15, it's the widest you can fit on stock suspension without any rubbing
12:20 wut? SOLD!
Another bible verse posted 🙌🏼
So video says 97-01 but you also showed your xj next to an older 96- model. Will the harness upgrade work for a 96 and older? And if it does, why not name the video 84-01? Either way thanks for the video
Yes the same harness works for all model years, the other XJ pictured was the one that convinced me to get it.
I went with 97-01 just because the header panel is put together a bit differently on the older ones. More screws, different places etc. Jimbo's video (in the description) covers the 84-96 years
Note that the cheap chinese harnesses use very low grade wire and are only 16 to 18 AWG
Do you still have a headlight with a bulb built in? i didnt know they had those on modern cars, only 70s 80s
Headlights were federally mandated to be one of 4 sealed beam configurations until 1986. The 1986 Ford Taurus was the first car to not use a standard sealed beam headlight after that mandate was lifted. For the 97+ XJ update I believe Chrysler was just being cheap and not fixing what wasn't broken by keeping the sealed beams.
@@expo4266 Maybe in North America, My Irish XJ is using ecodes with h4 bulbs
@@cappacullaan extremely common upgrade is to swap the sealed beam for an h4 compatible housing that looks factory. (I have done this on my jeep)
But international jeep are weird so I do not know.
Hood struts? Wait..what?
