Just to update from my OP about ordering 2016 JKU, the dealer told me they stopped building new 2016 orders and that I had to come in when the 2017 order banks opened.
I did, early August, and now have a VIN and D1 status on a 2017 JKU Willys W. (Also changed the color to Billet Silver)
The 2017 have an optional LED light package includes LED headlights and LED fog lights.
So that takes care of the lights! Hopefully they are decent.
I will probably start a build thread once it arrives later this month or early October as I plan to do some things to it, of course.
