At the center of KC’s new Gravity® LED 7” Headlight is our patented Gravity GRD™ (Gravity Reflective Diode) technology, which is engineered to maximize every lumen emitted from the LED. By directing the LEDs back into the optical reflectors at the most ideal angles we achieve maximum light output at a fraction of the wattage. This proprietary technology provides a highly functional beam shape with extraordinary beam distance.

  • Patented Gravity Reflective Diode (GRD) Technology
  • Precision die-cast aluminum housing with machined polished reflector optics, engineered to improve distance, visibility, and clarity
  • Easy Plug-n-Play for 07-16 Jeep JK/JKU Wrangler
  • DOT Compliant Low Beam, High Beam and Daytime Running Lights
  • Hard coated Polycarbonate lens for optical clarity and maximum light output
