Can I add LED tail lights to my Sport S???

[Bun707]

I just installed those Kiwi Master smoked LED lights from Amazon. They were easy to get in but they just aren’t bright. Attached is a side by side with OEM on the right and middle. My lux meter wasn’t reading red light but my estimate is straight back the LED was at least 3 times dimmer. You could see it, but it doesn’t grab your eyes like the original incandescent lights do. Plus the reveres lights are very dim. I love the look, but I also love safety. Debating sending them back, might sleep on it.

If you are not happy with them now, send them back for a refund while you can/if you can..

If you want to try another aftermarket, consider these. https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/fo...uential-led-tail-lights-by-cj-off-road.54463/

On Facebook and other JL related forums, I have read a few reviews from JL owner's that installed them. Most like them but do say reverse LED brightness is so so..

@Rhinebeck01. Good suggestion. Those look nice and certainly brighter! I watched the video and my only thought is does the sequential action really happen when braking? That seems odd if so. I wonder if it's defeatable.

I just bought RIGHT 55112890AG and LEFT 55112891AG from OEM Dodge Parts, installed them and right light drl didn't light up. Removed and plugged back in then it worked. Shut off Jeep and mins later it was not working anymore

Installed on 2020 JLU Willys

Yes they can be added. Nothing is different, they plug right up with no further modification!

Did the LEDs you purchased have a resistor to eliminate hyper-flash or did you buy a Tazer or go to the dealer to flash the LED sales code? Or maybe nothing and they work fine just swapping them? I'm hearing so many different things from different posts. Finally, which LEDs did you purchase? Thanks!

The only vehicles that have issue with them are export market vehicles. All U.S market JL's are plug and play no programmer etc..

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,

I have had these on my Sport S for 6 months. Very satisfied so far. They come in smoke (black) or clear.
