    I found this shot from the Paris Auto Show of what looks to be a Mopar roof light bar for the Renegade. While it shows only two lights, looking closer, there are cutouts for two more lights, for a total of four.

    Hopefully there will be a number of aftermarket Light Bars, Roof Rack Lights, Bumper Lights, 7" Truck-Lites and other Light Mods available for the Renegade as time goes on.

    I found the Renegade English owners manual here:
    Renegade Owner Handbook

    Looking at the stock light bulbs for the European market, which may or may not be the same as the U.S. market, I found these on page 125:

    Bulbs Type Power
    Main beam/dipped beam headlights (halogen) H4 60/55 W
    Main beam/dipped beam headlights (Xenon gas discharge) D5S 25 W
    Fog lights H11 55 W
    Rear fog light W16W 16 W
    (I've never heard of a Rear fog light, I wonder if that is a European thing only?)

    So here is a question for you Jeepers in the know, are there aftermarket bulbs for the Main Beams that are better that the stock bulbs for off-roading, in-case the Truck-Lite brand 7" does not fit?

    Great find and even better info!! I think a roof rack is kind of a must on these Renegades if you plan on doing any back country exploring. The addition of lights on this factory looking mod is very nice!

    Their was a nice Mopar aerodynamic roof rack discussed here:
    2014 SEMA Show - Jeep Renegade Graphic Packages

    I found it for real on the Jeep Cherokee Adventurer at the 2014 Moab Easter Jeep Safari. I think that would look nice on the Renegade, we will have to see how it fits with the Mopar Light bar show above.

    That looks a lot like what I have seen in renderings and am glad to see it's so aerodynamic. Should cut down on the noise quite a bit.

    I liked the looks of the light pods on the roof on the liberty. It would look good on one of these..

    I'd like to see a properly scaled bulbar for the front with a couple of lights and maybe a short receiver tube. That way you could plug in a winch if you really needed it.

    The round lights fit this jeep really well.

    LOL! The legs don't bother me, but that flap of skin in the armpit is grossing me out.
