JL Flush LED Tail Lamp Housings

The big bold boxy rear factory tail lamps on the JL are a hit for style; unfortunately, they're also often a hit on the trails rocks, trees, and obstacles. We've had our share of duct-taped factory plastic tail lamps that are cracked and filling up with water, dangling off the body, and designed these simpler tail lamp replacement upgrades to increase clearance and minimize damage to your tail lamps. 

Product Details

We've designed these slimmer JL Flush LED Tail Lamp Housings that bring the tail lamp in much closer to the body.

Pair these with our rear corner armor for maximum protection. You'll be ready to hit the trails and drive home without having to duct tape anything back onto your JL, and without worrying about rear corner damage.

Installation, Wiring and Blind Spot Detectors and Lights Out Errors

Installation takes about 15 minutes. As these are aluminum, they can be installed as-is bare metal unless you want to paint or coat them. No wiring is required as these come with factory style plugs that plug directly into the JL factory wiring harness.

These *do not* work with the blind spot detection system sometimes optioned on the JL Wrangler -- as the sensors are built into the factory tail lamps and cannot be made to work inside this metal housing.

On vehicles equipped with halogen tail lamps from the factory, lights may blink fast. This can be corrected by resetting your computers light configuration to "LEDS" rather then halogens. Lights out warnings will be found on the dash at the time the vehicle starts up with nearly all aftermarket tail lamp housings since they do not have the factory health monitoring systems built into them. These health monitor systems will need to be shut off if you wish to not see the error on vehicle start up -- however the lights will operate just fine even if the health monitors and error messages are occurring. In order to disable the healthy monitor system, you'll need access to a programmer such as the JL Tazer.

Reprogramming to disable health monitors (Not Required, but preferred if you have a programmer!)

Change lamps from LED to Halogen. Then back to LED. (If your vehicle starts off with Halogens, switch to LED, switch back to Halogen and then again to LED - you must end on LED mode regardless)

After the lamp mode has been changed twice (ending on LED) allow for a few sleep cycles of the vehicles computers. A sleep cycle usually requires that the vehicle be shut off, keys removed, driver door closed, and allow a few minutes with no activity before returning to the vehicle.

Final step: return to the vehicle, start it up, and turn on each blinker for 20 seconds. You will see an error message initially, but it should clear within those 20 seconds. After this, you should not see the health monitoring system error messages on start up.

 

Additional Details

Products are designed and fabricated to fit vehicles that have varying tolerances from the factory, minor hand fitting may be required. This is typically only an issue if you have hit your body/factory tail lamps on obstacles.

Products are shipped bare metal unless otherwise specified by the customer. Bare metal products may have scratches or surface imperfections as a result of raw material handling, manufacturing, and fabrication. However, these imperfections are easily covered up with a textured powder coat finish. Additional finishing, sanding, and prep work may be required if you wish to also have them finished with a smooth powder coat or paint.

Projected lead times are estimates only, and are subject to changes due to production realities, including material and labor availability and sudden variability in order volume. Lead times are not guaranteed, but we do guarantee that we are hard at work trying to get the best product we can produce and into our customers’ hands as quickly as possible.
