I've read all the older post about headlights but I'm curious how the new Quadratec V2 compare with the JW. Anyone running the V2s. Ordering this week.
I am ordering this week too. After a whole lot of reading (which can sometimes make you even more confused) I am pretty sure I have decided on the JW Speakers. My only thing with those is I want to match the fog lights...the JW Fog lights cost more than I want to pay for fogs, so now I am trying to figure that part out. I am doing more reading to see if there is another option for fogs that will look good.

I'm in the same boat with the fog lights. So far I haven't replaced them as I've only turned them on probably three times since I've taken ownership of the Jeep. I've heard that the Quadratec fogs look okay with the JW Speakers, but I'm hesitant to bite since the JW and QT lights have different color temperatures and it may look off.
I just did yellow fogs from amazon and they're fine. Only time I run them is during fog. If I need more light on dark streets I turn on the light bar but I need more light for daily driving. I'm curious about the stealth v2s. And for price, even more.
For a cheaper set of fogs that match your JW Speaker headlights really well, I really like my Morimoto XB LED fog lights. $150, plug and play with the adapter, an led projector that matches the look and color of the JW's really well.. Can't really go wrong!
Oh and I see I didn't really answer your question at all. Those were 2 options I narrowed it down to and after reading a couple of posts about the differences in the 2, I was leaning more towards the JW. Lifetime LED has them on sale right now.

Our Quad Stealth Gen II's are really a top notch headlight for the money! Their output, beam pattern, cutoff are all far superior than factory. JW Speaker is great as well, but is a completely different style of headlight (Projector, vs. the Quadratec LED's being a reflector pattern). As you can see, price is also significantly different. To be honest, go with what you feel looks better and is in your budget. You really cannot go wrong with either.
We also sell an LED fog available in either amber or white:

Quadratec all the way! May seem crazy but wouldn't use JW Speaker if it were free. I see lots of Jeeps with his headlights. Im not going to comment why but rest assured Quadratec's experience seemed far superior over JW Speaker as customer service and warranty.
Regarding warranties: If someone is really set on the JW Speaker lights (They are a great light!) and orders through us we handle the warranty. Basically, if they fail, we request photos. If it looks like a warranty issue, we handle it. A new light(s) is sent and after you receive the new light(s), we send a prepaid return label. This is also how we handle our Quadratec branded warranties.

Hi Rick,
I was interested in the LED upgrade + fog light package but it looks like the LED headlights used have different specs than the Quad Stealth Gen II lights? (Fewer Lumens)
Does the package use the Gen I lights? Also what are your thoughts of the light pattern and reach differences between the Gen II's and the Pro Comp LED's on your site? Same price but Projector vs Reflector again...
Thank you!
Our LED headlight & fog light upgrades use the same Gen II headlights as sold individually. The lumens output is the same between the kits or headlights only. It is possible one of the parts has not been updated on the website.
Projectors provide a much more evenly concentrated beam pattern than reflector housings. Both are a much improved upgrade over stock. I have run both & personally prefer projectors when possible, but have been very happy with our Quad Stealth / Standard LED headlights as well!
Thanks for your order - I hope you have a great evening!
-Rick
