So I will point out that the spelled Conversion as Convertion - but only sometimes. Not that spelling indicates the engineering capabilities of an individual, but just an observation on their attention to detail.

Do they even have hi/lo? yeah don't think so. I would save up like orlam said and pick either trucklites or the vast others that are trying to copy them.

Do yourself a favor and do not skimp on getting LED headlights. I did and man I am kicking myself. Spend the coin on quality products and you will
Not have regret or have to spend again on quality. Now I have to explain to SWMBO I need to buy Truk Lites because the ones I have suck.

In the winter time, your jeep would be decorated with snowflake headlights. That was my first thought when I saw them

Well if RIPP runs them they must be good because their superchargers are the bees' knees.

Head light mod

I cant find anything where they are DOT approved except for MAMBA offroad claiming they have no problems or complaints from customers. I can tell you however these LED lights in the 7 inch version can be found on amazon for half the price and to see them claiming to sell the hyper conversion kit for like 450 is nuts. I do have trucklites already but bought a set of these about a week ago, just zero time to install them basically. The RIPP guys had theres done by another shop but i dont remember who it was and they were a bit reluctant to respond after asking about them several times, finally called and got the above answer, tried contacting that shop and just got the basics really, mod, drill hole yes, plastic only though no metal and you need the 7 inch version. When i finish the mod ill do a write up on it simply because its been about a month of me researching these things.

Here are mine

The are just offroad LED lights (and cheap ones at that) that were put into housings (LEDs are on circuit boards) that happen to fit the JK's eye sockets. You can clearly see the LEDs are all flat, not aimed, and without lenses. Lenses (reflector or projector) is where headlight money goes. My projector HIDs cost a ton because of the projector which harnesses and distributes the light evenly and perfectly all across the range....

Notice how the light is perfectly distributed and properly cut off (to avoid blinding other drivers.)

Notice how you get excellent output dead center, and then even (although slightly lower) output everywhere else.

You can't get this without a quality lens, and your linked headlights do not have this lens at all. Your headlights are basically lightbars, which will probably work fine offroad, but on the road, you will blind everyone.
