Testing The Most Advanced Jeep Wrangler Headlights Ever Made - J.W Speaker Evo J3
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
J.W. Speaker is known to make extremely high quality, high output, and advanced headlights over the years. They stepped up the game and released their new Evo J3 headlight and Trail 6 combo, possibly changing the future of headlight technology.
In this video I install, review, and test out these new headlights!
As you can tell, they are packed with upgraded features and have a lot of unique features that other Jeep Wrangler Headlights do not have.
So far I am impressed, the light output is great, the build quality is top notch, and the advanced optics are mind blowing.
Yes, they are expensive and I know these won’t be affordable to the average Jeep owner. These lights appeal to those who want the best of the best, the coolest lights on the market, and still retain an amazing look of the Jeep without going overboard with auxiliary lights mounted all over the Jeep.
The J3 headlight is available in a heated lens, as well as a Graphite background. For more info, head over to www.jwspeaker.com/products/je...
Purchase here: bit.ly/2yrp2zP
The Trail 6 pro is another great upgrade. paired with the Evo J3 headlight (built in turn signals), we are able to replace our original turn signal with a high output auxiliary light. They are dimmable, and can be changed to white or amber via the J-Link app.
Thank you for watching, and stay tuned for more Jeep upgrade videos! Make sure to give the video a thumbs up, and subscribe to the channel!
I’ll see you on the trails!

Sweet lights!! I like the turn signal incorporated into the headlight so you can use the turn signal light for aftermarket lights that’s cool! Nice job Ben!👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸
Been looking for some new headlights. Thanks for the discount code! The wait begins :-)
Great video dude! Lights have been great and I'm excited for the heater function on my J3's come winter!
Thanks for the video. They really are cool lights.
Just ordered a set! Can’t wait for them to come in!
Great video, I’m glad they hooked you up. You make great, down to earth videos. What’s next on the JT??
Headlights again!? Hell yea!
I love your 4door red jeep and I love you keep up the good work and these lights look amazing
I think it is great you are getting some sponsorship opportunities. I've learned a lot from this channel and I know that sponsorships are a huge part of making a channel like this successful. Keep up the good work!
Great video. I'm running an older version of the J.W. Speaker headlights and think they are a great headlight setup. The only issue I ran into was the connection to my 2015 JK was poor and needed to zip tie them together. One thing missing in your video was how the turn signals worked. Other than that, great video and I enjoy following.
Great Video, totally dig it.
They are 🔥🔥🔥
Looks great bro!
I like your honesty!!
Greatly appreciate your honesty.

Dude, Im a fan of the channel but as soon as u said JW Speaker, I immediately applied for a home equity loan so i could afford a pair. Those guys are nuts with there prices, best bang for the buck. Quadratec stealth headlights. Under $300 no loan needed!!!!
Awesome light 💡 thx
Thanks for keeping it real.
I have JW speaker lights and they are the best...great video like the honest review
Those are some killer lights! That's the my jeep is perfect. Let's go over the top upgrade.
Wow. 41K suscribers now? Congratulations, man. Remember when you only had a few thousand.
The connector is actually pronounced (DOY-CH).
I have the J2 on my JK they are awesome. I have the headlights, the fog lights and turn signals which cost about $900 on Amazon so a grand isn't bad for one set of headlights that will do almost all
Those headlights are sooooo expensive, but cool looking. Thx for the review Ben.
Sweet light, a tad out of my budget, but nice. Also when you were in the corn field right when you said i hope someone does not jump out, KZread put in an o'riley auto parts commercial, perfect timing lol.
Killer video
That’s cool I how it lights up good
I saw the demo at 4wp. Ohmygoodness, they're cool!$$$$
I am starting to feel like a mechanic 🤣🤷🏿♀️. Anyway, the lights are super cool. They look bright to me. 👍🏿 to the functionality. I am glad to hear you were gifted them. #OnlytheVeryBest Enjoy! Thank one for sharing.
I have JW2's now and from what I can see the new ones look a bit more refined, in conjunction with the pro6's so much better...I like the way you can control the brightness and color.. OH and forget the guy that might be in the bushes "SLINDERMAN" is behind you at 13:53 ....
JW is known for their quality and high price. I do like the built in turn signal and the app but I don't like the price. I can't justify the price for the amount of trailing at night I do. Great review in all. Keep those videos coming. I also was wondering have you ever thought about a lighted whip on the back.
Thanks for the honest review. Yes, JW does lighting very well. $1600 for a set of lights to light the way... maybe if you've gotten all the other things on your rug where you want them but certainly not until then. At first I was like nooooo they got you too, but I hope you continue to keep it real. That down to earth perspective and do it yourself mentally is what keeps you a notch above the rest. 👍

This guy works hard
I've had their headlights in my old Cherokee and lived them. Quality is 2nd to none. Guess you sold me on some for the Gladiator. Thanks for the review.
Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but you can also get these with a heated option which can come in pretty handy.
Nice lights. Wondering how many more units they would sell if they lowered the price point.
I will say though even though my axial headlight are a great alternative over stock. They are just a placeholder. I do plan getting either kc, morimoto or jw speaker headlights. But for fog lights I really think all fogs should be amber, white lights just dont cut it when it's raining, snowing or dusty. Even in town.

Brian Clifford I’m with you on that, way out side my price range
I purchased both the HEATED J3's and a set of the Trail 6 Pro. I'm thinking about purchasing another set of the Trail 6 Pro. I have to make sure they will also work separately with the app.. I have a aftermarket steel grille/bumper combination and there aren't any holes for the Trail 6 Pro's. I will modify a bracket and mount a set into foglight holes and the other set will mount on my A-pillars to replace my Rigid pods. I've wanted these every since I first seen them. I got in on the PRE-ORDER on the very first day. I have been waiting for 5 months for these to come in! Well, They are finally here!! Install tomorrow.....Excited to try them out!!
Lol parking lot meets. If you buy these lights, you are definitely a parking lot queen.
I'll bring you my red grill if I can get those lights Ben.....

Does the day time running light work from the lights themselves, since its not a oem feature?
What year is your jeep? did you need any additional flicker removal or something to connect the trail 6 into the old fog light circuit?
Just a heads up!! Morimoto makes an excellent bucket adapter JL that accommodates 7inch headlights !!

Great vid Ben. Lights...Cool, fun and all that....but not for a grand. JW Speaker definitely makes a great product, but they are catering to a limited market due with their high costs.

I would recommend a rockkrawler or Metalcloak lift. They are pricey, but the suspension is a major component of your Jeep, and a good ride is important!
Compared to the last headlights you installed, these are much better‼️‼️ I have been using JW Speaker head/fog lights for a while now & they are the best for spread & cutoff. I recently upgraded from the Evo J to the J2 series headlights along with the turn signals & they do not disappoint. I agree with you that the $$$$$ is too much, I would rather put that amount to something else, instead of headlights. Welcome to the party Ben‼️‼️ Enjoy brah 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
I use the bi directional Oracle Oculus headlights on my JL. I love them and only paid $550.
Mall krawler approved!
Are you keeping both of those Alaska license plates? I'm a new collector and would love one if you don't want it haha
No turn signal test? Can I adapt to put in an LJ.

Those look like the beam spread is nicer than my J2. Not sure about the look of the light itself. Need to see them in person.
I have them. Both the evo J3 heated and the Trail 6 Pro LED's. Light output is what you would expect for a regularly priced $500-$700 headlights in similar class and a $300, 3" offroad light (trail 6 pro). Their app sucks. I have to be directly over the grille for the bluetooth function to work. Also, the App continuously crashes on me. In-cab controls via cellphone cannot happen. Are you experiencing the same? Have you had alot of night, seat-time with these in your JK since installed over a year ago?

JW Speaker, there is no substitute!! 😉
Pretty cool lights Yo. Too much money for me dude. Although i do agree that a good quality headlight is a great upgrade for your jeep. I did a review on the Truck Lite LED's and they are worth the money opposed to the knock off version Thanks for sharing Ben.
I have an older set of earlier speakers lights that have the same type of awesome lighting. Yes they were expensive but worth every penny. Used the fogs for my driving lights the head lights were so bright. Hope you enjoy these they are the next line for awesome lighting. OMB
So, were those the driving lights towards the end of the video? Also, your blinker video is still on private.
Did you keep the old lights?
Those are nice lights but their is no way I would ever pay that much for a light ever I didn't even pay that much for my Jeep lol thanks for sharing
So you have had them for a year now..whats your overall impression? Worth the money?
I do actually have an extra grille, it’s granite gray but you can always paint it, it’s the stock one since I went the angry eye route, let me know if you’re interested man

Kevin Deibler I’ve never done a clutch bypass on a jk, so I can’t really tell you how. And the Jk uses a canbus system so it might get complicated. One thing I will mention, is that if you put the Jeep in 4wd low, then you can start it in gear without the clutch, that’s a factory override. I don’t you don’t want to shift to 4Low each time, but it will help out in water and muddy situations
