Light bars & bi-xenon headlights
Hi all, I was looking at a 1Lum light bar yesterday at a well known auto accessory store. When I said I had a MY 15 GC Overland the shop guy said they would not fit them because there have been a lot of instances of the light bar blowing the bi-xenon headlights. He did suggest that possibly Jeep have a particular wiring loom for light bars. Does anyone know anything at all about this?
Cheers, Steve.

Hello new member Steve,
Has not the guy in the shop heard of a relay switch? And the different ways they can be configured?
Or am I totally missing something

Hi Hoobz & thanks for the reply. I may have made that fatal mistake of believing he knew what he was talking about. I did assume he knew about relays etc. I'll investigate further (elsewhere).

Thanks timsarg, & everyone else for your comments on this. Think I'll wait until the warranty ends next January anyway.
