Thanks.

Back on topic...
4 choices basically:
1 Pull from a doner vehicle (Pontiac GTP louvers being by far the most popular). Price varies I've seen 40-200 bucks.
2 Run Cool Louvers. Sweet looking but run 130-290 for a set.
3 Gen Right louvers like mine @ 50 bucks.
4 full on custom hot rod shop stamped louvers on the OEM HOOD. $$$$$

I bought the Chrysler LeBaron/New Yorker Hood Vents for the Cherokee, I have no idea if they would fit the KJ. If they do, let me know because I know a source to get these vents shipped to your front door for $45. I like the fact that they are larger than most aftermarket louvers, reducing more underhood heat. People who have them installed say there are no problems with rain, snow, or moisture under the hood.

Here are the ones that I bought:

Here's what they look like on Rokee's Jeep.
