Guest grey thunder Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Where did you get your atz from I looked into these last year and was told no longer available in the UK .... :diablo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Member Oddball Posted January 5, 2016 Author Platinum Member Share Posted January 5, 2016 Andy sourced me a set direct from Silverline. Also found them on tyresdirect (315's)...they are the new P3's. I ran a set of the old ones on my TD5...these did go out of supply in the UK and there was a significant supply gap before the P3's arrived. I swapped to BFG's because of this after wearing the original set out, really missed them so really looking forward to seeing how these new ones perform on the Jeep. The old ones were much more road biased, these P3's are much more aggressive... They aren't a cheap tyre but I haven't come across anyone so far that didn't love them.

Platinum Member Oddball Posted January 5, 2016 Author Platinum Member Share Posted January 5, 2016 Indeed. I never wanted for traction on the TD5...I always ran out of flex before grip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member Oddball Posted January 6, 2016 Author Platinum Member Share Posted January 6, 2016 If you want to install the App Radio and retain OEM steering control you need one of these (apparently!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Member Oddball Posted January 6, 2016 Author Platinum Member Share Posted January 6, 2016 Just given myself a nose bleed figuring out how to plug it all in. I may well set up a stand alone thread and put a guide together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member Oddball Posted January 6, 2016 Author Platinum Member Share Posted January 6, 2016 Likely to upgrade to LED main lights but in the short term have gone for a set of these to try and better the sub par lighting situation: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators stewart Posted January 7, 2016 Administrators Share Posted January 7, 2016 If you don't already know here's how the get the bulbs in and out!! https://www.jeepowners.club/forum/index.php/topic,338.0.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Member Maverick23 Posted January 7, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted January 7, 2016 So are these OSRAM H4 considered the best "replacement bulbs" for a JK at the moment? Not sure I want to go the LED or HID route ... but brighter lights would be a welcome addition. Can you also get upgrade bulbs for the fog lights?

Arb / IPF do a H4 upgrade very cheaply replacing the Stock headlamps units. Not really worried about the fog lamps too bright they just reflect the light back at you more :scratch: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member Oddball Posted January 7, 2016 Author Platinum Member Share Posted January 7, 2016 Dry fit done just before bed time! Need some advice from those with the AEV bumper; how have you cut the filler strip? The US version is flat so only needs trimming for the winch, the EU version is heavily sculpted at each end to marry with the noddy OEM bumper...how did you template it and make the cuts? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't even tried mine yet!! Fitted the Osram Kerry...brilliant compared with OEM. Nice and white and noticeably brighter.
