Did all of you guys reprogram for the LEDs? Just trying to decide if I need to order a tazer JL (or superchip) as well. Thanks!
I have a superchip set-up but I have NOT reprogrammed yet. So far, no flicker or anything. Not sure if I need to.

I'm assuming this will work for my 2019 Wrangler also, did you have to do any coding?
No coding. My friend did put the same setup I did in his 2019 JL with no issues.

damn had i known all of this, i wouldn't have gotten the led package.
I don't think it is as good as the Jeep LED...just a solid option for those of us that purchased one without it. If mine would have the LED on it I would not have thought twice.

Would not worry about snow and ice buildup with leds....I added the Hiraki's to my zr2 (projectors) and wife's suv... zero issues on longevity (over a year now) or ice, which included quite a few trips to northern maine snowmobiling...

Put in the DRL's, blinkers and fogs tonight (already had Supernova v.4's in for mains). I went with an amber Alla for the fogs instead of the white ones that were llinked:

(Edit. Had the blinkers linked by mistake)

The DRL's, fogs and flashers we're about $60 all in from Amazon, and the supernovas we're about $155 on sale from Headlight Revolution. Probably about three hours install time all told, but I had no experience cracking open Jeeps and wasted a ton of time. I'd bet I could do it in around an hour now if I had to do it again.

With the LED rears stock from the safety package, this gives me total LED on my Sport S. No flicker or hyperflash. Huge difference in light output. I couldn't be happier with the results...

The package is better imo. All lights. Exact wiring to spec. I'm for it. On my no tech sport build I cant Get it, so would do this to Have it if that makes sense.

The LED package is more than just the headlights. Having the LED fender lights makes the options for aftermarket lighting on those open up a lot. The slim line fender lights and the Morimoto ones just to mention a few.

The slim sequential fender lights from quake are 100% compatible with non led gladiators.
There some much better 9” LEDs now. I’m ordering the blis package to get led tails and going for better aftermarket for less than Jeep wants

I could have swore like a month ago they didnt work on the non LED models? could be wrong. What lights are you going with that beat OEM right now that are 9", Maybe the orcacle bi-LED projector ones?

Ill add the quake LEDS only work with the Rubicon fenders just so everyone knows

What size is the headlight in the JT? I thought it was only 7" stock....
The JL and JT have 9" round headlights. 7" will fit with an adapter.

Ok don’t laugh at me, but had the gladiator out at night last night for the first time with both heads and fogs in. Amazed at the light output. Lit up the entire road and also with good distance, and.......not a single flash from an oncoming vehicle. Don’t forget, just had the 2.5” leveling kit put on and did not adjust light downs either.

I swapped out all the front facing bulbs with LEDs, it makes a huge difference.

The backup lamps are so weak that backing into my driveway on the reverse camera it looks like a gray scale cartoon.

Does anyone make LED replacement bulbs for the back up lights?

The American Adventure Labs were causing a "bulb out" indicator light. The Quakes are reported to not cause this.
