How to Install LED Tail Lights on Jeep

Lastly bought all around to setting up my LED tail lights yesterday, and done it up now. I imagine I'll do a little write-up and post some pictures since I'm completely hung over at this time.

I had purchased a number of LED's from Harbor Freight, however made a decision I required something else.

Crappy thing is, if they showed up they did not seem like the ones in the images, they are a lttle bit different, although I still liked them so I kept them.

You can see them here as well. I certainly like the look of extra LED's.

Install Conclusion...

1. Tape
2. Mark - I made use of a format that I printed out in AutoCAD.
3. Drill a hole for the saw blade
4. Cut - My cheep HF jig saw previously worked good. Cutting was very straightforward.

The toughest part in relation to the following was that I decided to take out the tail gate and hinges to supply me more room for the saw. HOWEVER, of course, one among the Torx bolts got stripped, I drilled it out, tried to quick-out it, the bit broke interior... I cursed plenty. Oh well, I ultimately got it out this morning, just utilized my dremel and notched a position in it, and insured it out with a big flat head screwdriver.

5. Grind smooth - Used my dremel to smooth out the cut.
6. Drill mounting holes.
7. Wiring - This is always the "fun" part, but it all went well.

LIGHTS----JEEP-------FUNCTION
Red----Black/Green---Brake / Blinker
Black------White-------Tail Light
White------Black*-------Ground
N/A-----White/Black-----Back-up (scroll down to see back-up lights post)

On the driver side there is a black wire on the receiving end of the factory plug, so I was able to use it as ground. There is not one on the passenger side, so I grounded the lighting to the fender.

That’s with regards to it for my "write-up"... I will most likely return and expand on some things.

Ford explorer with LED Interior Lights Installation

Hi everyone. I planned to present everyone how to change those regular interior light bulbs for LED bulbs on 4th Gen Ford Explorer. I'm not sure if another person has or not posted this before, but here you go. I did the following on my 2007 Ford Explorer yesterday afternoon. This challenge required about 30-45 minutes to do. I am not responsible for any kind of injury YOU do to ones vehicle. Try this set up AT YOUR OWN RISK.

You are going to get 6 led bulbs. That is how much it needs for all interior bulbs. 3 sets of 2 bulbs per pack, hopefully I said this right with free shipping and delivery. I consider is a good deal. You are going to have some simple hand tools.

First factor is to get rid of screw from over head console.

As soon as you take remove screw, you will have to pop down front over head console, very carefully.

Simply planned to show everyone what contains the front part of over head console. After that you unplug connector to the lights.

Take off the 4 screws in the circle. Sorry for the picture, I didn't remember to take picture of product above flip over. (The 3rd photo indicates a better view of portion with screws)
(At least it illustrates the perspective of the standard bulb fitted. )

Graphic displays the LED bulb mounted. You might have to change (by turn them) them after you mount the overhead console, at least temporary.

I plugged them up to test them out. I think they are bright. (Turn on the LED bulbs, to view if they work. If one among them doesn't work, you may need to flip the bulb around. )

For the reinstalling the stuff is reverse of removal.

Here are some pictures previously mounted.

LED Panel Lights Installation for Dodge Charger

The lights that i ordered are not the exact measurement as the halogen bulbs that come stock. The do come with connections for both the front and the back so for $25 you might do your complete inner surface. Not bad if you ask me. For now just to make sure i liked them i ordered one set. $12. 50 shipped.

All right first off you have to have a small flat head screw driver. You will push this up by the portion of the light you push to change it on. Once you get it up pry it straight down. It will only fall a little, just like this particular.

When you get that done check out and you'll see a piece of plastic keeping it in. Take the tiny screw drive and push it up to the top of the plastic and push it in and pull down once you find it free. It will feel like its likely to break but unless you put an astronomical sum of pressure on it it won't. Couldn't truly get a picture of that.

As soon as you get the bit of plastic off you ought to take the old light out and get a set of two of pliers and pull the heat shields out. They're a little of a pain and i really just clamped down and jerked it. As soon as you have them out it should appear like the following.

Following that take your light and put it in the clamps. Just before you put the double sided tape down BE CERTAIN THE LIGHTS WORK! If they don't work at first try flipping it around in the clamp connections. I turned the lights entirely off when i was swapping it around. Didn't need to take the risk of receiving surprised or screwing something up. As soon as you observe that they are working Peel off the double sided tape and push it up there where it fits. I discovered it fits effectively and appears beneficial right here..

Check to ensure that all is still working.

Right now tuck the wires up in the light cavity making sure they don't block the lighting.

Right now to put the bit of plastic back on you work backwards. Get started with the back and clip it in.

And then push the front in. You may possibly have to push the piece in a little bit. then boom you're fixed! (the right one wasn't stuck up difficult enough so it is resting on the plastic and appears a little bit interesting)
