Simply Offroad Tail light Housings

[Triple-XJ]

Very Simple Install. ;)

I am shocked at the craftsmanship, :eek: they follow the Bodylines perfect.

Mark kept hinting to me that mine were "real nice" , They are boxes, how nice could the be :rolleyes: , Well mine took forever to build so Mark ordered up from Simply Offroad, for those who dont know, they are a Forum Sponsor here on the AZVJC Board. ;)

It took a while for Mark to get them, but as soon as they werein hand, He headed over.
Wha-la, in no time they were installed :)

Next is a bumper :cool: , I will have the final pics soon.

Geno,

Thanks for the great writeup... I know it took a while to get them finalized but I must say it was well worth the wait for the finished product..

Stay tuned there's more cool stuff comming.....

I saw them in person and they look really good. I only seem to have oneissue with them, the amber blinker is barely visible at night when the brakes are depressed. It could be the size of it that is the issue or the overpowering of the light. Needless to say, if I wasn't paying a lot of attention to where he was going, I would have probably missed a turn going home.

Those look good, probably the best I've seen for the "newer" body style. Do they come paint to match? Any pictures of them lighted up?

I like the 2x4 bumpers :D


The light kit looks great.

Sure, hmm, lets see,




What was the question :confused:

I like them. They are clean and do the job. KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid), I like clean designs.
Are you going to be selling the housing alone, so when they break again you just replace the housing?

I have some paint adhesive for plastic, you spray it on before the primer. With that (Bull Dog, brand name), some primer and paint to match, they will look good on any XJ. All the stuff just mentioned you can get at Space Age in rattle cans on the East side of town. I am not sure about the West side of town.

Here are a few pics of Simply Offroad STEEL light housings lit up with NON LEDs....

[Dave@desertfab.com]

James,

The housings are 12 ga cold rolled steel. Lighter than plate yet 75% the strength of 3/16 ths plate.

Also, if you take your vehicle to Space age and give them the paint codes they will mix you up some stock color.. So Yes, you could color match the boxes to factory color for the super clean look..

Any other questions please feel free to email me.

Is there an led version of the above lights out yet? or would you be able to use the leds that plug in light a regular bulb?? thanx

[Dave@desertfab.com]

We dropped the LED option due to cost.. You can order empty housings and install your own LED lights if you so desire..

Shoot me an email if your interested.
