Reviews for Crown Automotive J5752771 Front Parking Lamp for 76-86 Jeep CJ-5, CJ-7 & CJ-8 Scrambler
These look and feel just like the original ones I pulled out of my Jeep. Honestly, I'm very impressed with the quality. I too had the bulbs flipped where the brighter filament was the parking light and the dimmer filament was the turn indicator.
A quick fix was to push the wires and the white disk that the bulb contacts touch through the housing and flip it 180 degrees. I put the bulb back in and it reversed the wires for the filament. Now everything works as it should! with the brighter light being the turn indicator. I knocked a star off for having to figure this out :D
Better reviews / price than Omix
These are nice replacement assemblies. Both of the units I received though ended up have the High/Low filament terminals in wrong. (ei. Turn Signals not visible with lights on since High filament was on with Lights and Low filament flashing) The bulb has hi/low posts on its base, so it'll only goes in one way. Simply remove the bulb and gently push the terminal base out of the socket and rotate it 180deg. and gently push it back down into the socket. Turn Signals work properly now.
Iam missing them on my jeep, and they look pretty good
Correct stock color
Nice replacement assy's. However, the first x2 units had the wires reversed so it had power going to the wrong filaments on the bulb. It had super bright parking lights and dim turn signal that flashed very slowly. Quadratec promptly sent out x2 replacements but they were also wired backwards. So it was easy enough to swap the wires and now they work great. Great customer service from Quadratec trying to resolve the issue quickly by providing immediate replacements. Just keep in mind if you connect them and have an issue like this.
Knocked off a star because I had to remove the wires from the plug and swap them around to make this work properly. Either my Jeep is wired up backwards or these came wired reversed from the factory. Not the end of the world just took extra time for install. They look great.
Great
Easy install, plugged right in.
Just like the others said. Had to reverse the wires. No biggie though. They are nice. Come with some thin foam gaskets. Not original screws. Keep your original shoulder screws to secure these back into place. Comes with bulbs but they are not very “orange”. They work but very dim orange. Not bad for the money. Mine were in bad shape so these helped make it more reliable.
