Yup, and you also gotta get a different plug from the dealer.

It's so easy it's almost not worth a write up...

On the back of the glass bulb you'll see 3 protrusions... they are rectangle. The TJ are at a certain clocking... the JK's also have 3 but they are at a different clocking...

The housing they go into is plastic and has cutouts for these rectangle parts to sit into.. so get a dremel and cut out a notch in the plastic where the JK protrusions are located and it'll sit in it like normal..

Done.. See wasn't that easy??
