New 2014 Headlights come with the Philips HIR2 9012 bulbs. Found out today. Unless you have the HID's. I have a 2014 Latitude. It has the HIR2. I upgraded the fogs to LED 5000k, sweet! they are psx24w/2504. Plug and Play.

Thanks for the info!
Since the Cherokee uses HIR2/ 9012 bulbs you would need a 9006 HID kit for the headlights and a 5202 HID kit for the fog lights. If you want to get LED bulbs for the fog lights than you can get the matching PSX24W for it.
At this time were not sure if the Cherokee requires a relay harness, resistors or capacitors.

If you buy anything other than the 2504 and the 9012, you might have to mod the tabs. some hid kits might not work for headlights, because the enclosure behind the light is real tight.

Correct.
You definitely want to make sure to get proper PSX24W LED bulbs for the fogs to get a true replacement.

No worries - Sorry for the confusion.
I have a 2014 Cherokee Trailhawk. I see in the owner's manual it lists the fog lights as PSX24W and I just want to make sure that if I upgrade my fog lights, the ones referenced above are direct replacements and do not require any modification. They are just plug and play, correct?
Also how easy is it to change them? I'm on Long Island, and there's snow and slush, and I don't have a garage or anything, so spending any extra time under the vehicle is not something I want to be doing. Thanks!

Off topic DarkHawk...but I am in Garden City today for work...off to Brooklyn tomorrow. 
Be careful out there. I'm a lot further out east, and I hear you got more snow and ice out there than I did here. Being in Brooklyn tomorrow is probably really gonna suck. Hope it goes smoothly for you thoughOff topic DarkHawk...but I am in Garden City today for work...off to Brooklyn tomorrow.

It's odd but it started raining now and it's just really sloppy. Hoping whatever they put on the roads today will keep it from freezing. Thankfully I am not driving! Good luck, I hear more is on the way!Be careful out there. I'm a lot further out east, and I hear you got more snow and ice out there than I did here.

It's just after midnight and I just came home. Everything on the road here is frozen, so it's very slippery. Also makes it ridiculously hard to find a paring spot when they aren't all completely shoveled out. Yeah, supposed to get a lot more on Sunday.

As long as your stock bulbs are PSX24W bulbs then our PSX24W LED bulbs will be plug+play. There has been some confusion about this board about people buying 5202 LED bulbs to fit PSX24W which would require modification.

Thats basically the same thing...the resistors are used to stop lamp out warnings and they usually call them canbus.

Actually, resistors are different from can bus - completely. Resistors simulate a 50W load and have to be used in combination with a relay harness. Canbus are capacitors which can be used with or without a relay harness.

I guess what I meant was, many places call their lights Canbus lights because they have a resistor in them. Thanks for that info.
