which housings your running? I have Pete 367's and will only run the 5x7 JW Speaker LED, they are excellent, especially now that they have a heated element. IF your running the pod style, cut your losses, get rid of them, I used to have them on one truck, hated them and every thing I tried to make them better failed miserably compared to the Speakers. Sell them on Kijiji and look for a set of 5x7 housings.

These are all we run in our trucks at work. The boys have no complaints about them at all.... I am the only one complaining with each order as the summabiches are not cheap! Great warranty on them though as well, so a guy has to take them as they are.

Yep JW Speaker are king I had a set in my 379 and they worked great. Quite a few flashes but were well worth it. This newer truck is a 388 with those silly "Bug Eyes" headlights. I'm Looking on the web to see if you can adjust them

by adjust them, do you mean screw adjust up and down, or adjust as in better bulbs?

the thing a lot of guys dont seem to realize with the JW Speakers, if you adjust them a bit lower you actually get better light, once the general public quit flashing you, you have them set right.
