first off i want these for my 11 overland. i'm not sure what headlights mine came with (if you know please tell me) and thus how complicated the install is for conversion wiring or not.
second to that where is the best place or vendor here to get them from? I saw something about a discount code here or there.
and last I have only seen a couple pics so far, not a collective results / pics thread. so lets see!
I went ahead and ordered the Mopar tow hooks. Seemed like they were back ordered everywhere. I lucked out and found one in stock but in black. I will buy high grade red paint and paint them.
I figured since I'm taking the front bumper off to install the headlights I might as well install the tow hooks.
I received the headlights and they look very nice. I will seal them. Now I'm waiting on the custom harness.
That's exactly what I did as well. Since I'll be taking off my front bumper for the HID headlight conversion on my 17 I felt it was the perfect time to add the Tow Hooks. Where did you source yours from? I got mine from Morris 4x4 and they arrived yesterday. Everyone else has them on back order. What paint do you plan on using to paint them red? I'm considering painting mine as well.

Mine came like that too, well no that bad as yours. I wrote a review, two hours later they sent me a message apologizing and that they were going to replace the Hooks.
Oh man! Yours too? That sucks! I had to follow up with them to see if they got my pics and they said they are shipping out new ones today. They said they would open up the kit and individually wrap each item with packing material this time to avoid any damage. Received tracking number on new shipment around 4:00pm this afternoon. Hopefully these arrive damage free. They are sending UPS to pick up the damaged ones tomorrow. New ones expected to arrive Friday. So now everything I had planned to complete has been delayed to this weekend.
I revived my tow hooks and they were bangged up also. In all fairness, this how they come packaged from the factory as the box had Mopar labels if recall correctly.
No biggie, I will retouch with black paint first (VHT Caliper paint) then finish the tips in red.
So I decided to paint my tow hooks in orange. I used VHT Chrysler Hemi Orange. I think it will go nice with my Maximum Steel Metallic GC. What do you think?
Right now I have no other orange accents but have been thinking about what would look good to enhance the appearance without being tacky. I thought about the brake calipers or my roof rack.
On the roof rack there are three metal plates (each side and back) that gives rigidity to the rack. I thought about painting the plates orange and get some Jeep stickers in black for contrast.
a little over a month since install and so far so good with Osram D2s Bulbs!
I would like to see light pattern of someone that installed these lights with an H7 HID or LED bulb. I am not in love with the D2S bulbs but it could be the nature of the projectors.
I realize I am new, and very late to the party, but if a discount code is still available, I would very much like to order a set of these headlights for my 2012 WK2.
