HELP!! 2021 Willys Fender Light / DRL Questions

[hoag4147]

Do you think this is a better alternative than finding Rubi LED lights for the fenders and changing them out?

Rubi/Sahara flare lights are different than Sport. You would need to swap flares

Yes dude I’m telling you, you won’t be disappointed. Just cop the Oracle lights.

Even if you did switch rubicon / Sahara LED flares it’s not compatible with your Jeep. You don’t have the setting in your system. You’d have to buy a Tazer and reprogram everything. Cop oracles!!

So I am trying to do something with the marker/turn signal lights on my 2021 Willys.
I went out and checked the front signal/marker light on the Jeep. There is one halogen bulb per side even though tails are full LED along with the headlight halos, headlight bulbs and foglight bulbs.

I am not sure what sense that made when the designers started putting together the specs on the Sport/Willys models.

There is no option to activate DRL’s in Uconnect on my Jeep so, unless I change to Rubi fenders with OEM LED marker lights, I’m thinking I put in some CanBus compliant switchback yellow/white bulbs in that position and if I want them on looking like DRL’s I just turn the headlight switch from “Auto” to “Parking Lights” function.

I was wondering if you put the light switch in "Parking Light" mode during the day vs. "Auto" will this work?

Unfortunately that will not work. You will need to use a Tazer to program the settings in your Willys if you want the fenders to act as DRLs.

I am using the oracle switchbacks, and am fine with the fenders not being DRLs, there’s really no purpose since we have the halo ring on the headlights as DRLs.

Also, even if you got the rubicon fenders, you still need to program your sport style UConnect system with a Tazer ($300+) for the fenders to act as DRLs. Even with the rubicon style fenders, the setting won’t magically appear in our sport style system.

Your best bet is to spend $65 on the Oracle switchback LEDs so when the fender lights come on at night they are a crisp
White to match the rest of the vehicle, and just be okay with the fenders not acting as DRLs.

Best,
AP

They will illuminate white if using a switchback bulb. But remember, you will have to manually set the headlight switch to that every time you get in the vehicle if you want the lights to be on.

Thanks for the info guys. It was very helpful.

One last question. If I go with the Rubi fender and light mod will I still need to program DRL function and/or do some wiring?

Correct.

 

[JL MADDOG]

OK. Well, we will try the Oracle switchbacks first and go from there if needed.

Again, Thanks for the help!

Quick question, in the product website it says the bulb will not work with the factory LED options, does it mean that I cannot use it for my Sport Altitude with factory LED package? Thanks.
