    The best place is James at Xtreme Paint and Grapics, one of our Advertisers in Texas.

    I will second what Tom says about James at Xtreme. He provides a first class product at a reasonable price. He also offers choices of halogen or xenon.

    One small caveat about the conversion I got from James: the turn signal/marker LED assembly was glued in, meaning it had to go back to Xtreme when I had an LED failure in that light. James took care of it for free, but it would have been far easier if it was a user-replaceable fixture.

    The kit he provided to me was to upgrade/update my rectangular lights on a 2003 Liberty. I thought the Legendary conversions all had the round lights already… If that is the case I do not know about upgrade possibilities.

    You should already have the round headlights. If so, there really is no upgrade unless you go to HID or brighter bulbs.

    Are they just out of adjustment by chance? Mine in my 2008 (06 chassis) are pretty good on both low and high beam. I have no complaints about them.

    Greg,

    Something isn’t right if the lights are dim.

    The daytime headlights are by nature dim. They are supposed to be. Is it possible your headlights are on the circuit intended for the daytime running lights, and the daytime running lights are the reduced current lights?

    See James. He will help you.

    I would also verify 24 volts are actually at the lights and not 12 volts,I have seen new batteries installed and wired wrong and the results are incorrect voltages to certain areas.

    I thought that my bus is 12v for lighting…I will have to check that. I have lots of 12v stuff on my coach, and I would assume the poster does too…

    I have an 06 Legendary and my lights are bright at night. I was amazed how much brighter they were than my 98 coach. Sounds like you definitely have something wrong with yours.

    Just finished getting these installed to replace the old square headlights. Got them from CTC. They have halogens or LEDs.

    Facelift took about 5 years off the old girl.

    I put rigid industry running lights in they are so bright you don’t even need headlights I would not put anything else for running lights , the rest are a waste of money… About 3000 each give or take can not brake them with rocks or hammer. Well worth it put 25,000 miles with them last year and they are the best forget the rest …..

    Peter,

    You are sure right about the Rigid lights. They take a beating on the rock buggies and keep on going.

    Dd you mount yours in the bumper holes ? Do you happen to remember the size or part number ?

    I would like to mount two in our bumper if they fill the rectangle hole.
