Keep motorists behind you aware of your every move with Maxbilt Trail Tail LED Tail Lights. These LED tail lights produce a complete set of tail light signals including stop, turn, and reverse, using extremely bright LED bulbs. This ensures trailing motorists see your Wrangler TJ's signals even in bad weather.
The Maxbilt Trail Tail LED Tail Lights feature a tough, waterproof plastic construction that’s capable of taking a lot of abuse. These tail lights also feature a slim, almost flush design that prevents the component from taking any damage when navigating tight trails. Additionally, the lights’ slim design adds a nice, sleek touch to your Jeep’s back end.
The Maxbilt Trail Tail LED Tail Lights is designed as a direct replacement unit, bolting onto your Jeep’s existing tail light mounting locations. Installation uses just standard hand tools. Please note that some modifications to the factory license plate mount may be necessary in order for the LED tail light to fit. Also, license plate lights need to be added to make your Jeep DOT-compliant. terrain.jp/2OWejqE

You could also cut the original connector off of the factory tail lights and splice that into the new tail lights so they have a better connection. Just a thought for those of you who may prefer solder and reusing weatherproof oem connectors

[@LukeEdward]

CubNole Or bought and wired int a cheap, matching female end of the connector and not had to cut anything

[@LukeEdward]

I appreciate the effort, and these are really neat. BUT Y’all have to remember WATER!!! I have personally had to repair wiring that has been done like this and the deleterious affects it has on the vehicle’s electrical system. Always always always protect ANY expose areas of an electrical system’s wiring. Tape up the exposed taillight connector so the 4 leads aren’t exposed, tape up EVERY area you tap into, and then tape up the whole thing so water cannot get into the wiring. It sucks tracing down, and then cutting feet out of electrical wiring because an exposed end allowed corrosion to creep up the copper. I’ve spent two hours under a van that had almost this exact same wiring job, and the Florida rain being constantly kicked up into the exposed wire taps screwed EVERYTHING up in the OEM wiring harness in only 2 years. Then the license plate. Ughhh. You have a broken bottom piece, but when you cut out that small section, you now have an open plastic, license plate holder shaped cup that collects precipitation. The best case is the water stagnates and festers there. The worst case is it creeps into the body, through the four mounting bolts, rusting the panel out behind it. I appreciate the effort, but if someone was to follow this video, they would be doing a lot of repairs in the years to come. To anyone buying this, please finish the installation. You spent good money on quality, cool looking taillights. Please take care of the Jeep you’re booting them too.

The removed stock wires were replaced at one time as those in the video pulled out were spliced into the harness after the connector. I would have preferred this method of using the newer crimp solderless heat shrink connectors readily available at your local parts stores.

[@LukeEdward]

Michael Moran I THOUGHT SO! It’s been years since I had my TJ and I couldn’t remember. No matter what, this installation method will lead to an inevitable failure.

[@slayerwatcher]

How long have you been waiting to use the word "deleterious" in a sentence? Lol...

[@LukeEdward]

@@slayerwatcher You, genuinely made me laugh. When I'm tired, my vocabulary seems to expand as I forget the easy way to say things.

[@jstans01]

Agreed, I would have bought a waterproof 4 wire pigtail harness on amazon and attached to the factory wiring with waterproof butt connectors. Theses things look really good though!

[@johndoe007inDC]

... is it me or does passenger side look slightly higher than driver side? Otherwise they look nice

[@LukeEdward]

Nordekai HAHAHAHAHAHA! Paused the video at 3:41 and IT IS! Looks like Sloth, from The Goonies, is angry at you.

[@mrsalsamafiatv235]

the wife couldn't tell her contacts are out. I could see that with my eyes closed with a blind fold on.

[@sonnyrussell9303]

Where is the light for the license plate ?

[@TerryMasonJr]

Crazy that at $200 the wiring isn't plug and play. Those vampire / scotch locks are junk. You'd be better off buying a $15 trailer wiring kit that will come with the proper plug. Cut that up and use it's plug instead of the vampire taps. It will make things much cleaner and more secure.

[@SpooxyCowboy1911]

upside down pineapple?? Iykyk

[@raymondmoran7024]

No light test. killing me..

[@isachar2013]

Tag need to be trimmed too... 10 min later .. being pulled over 😒

[@HAHAWTFOMG]

It be nice if you guys made an actual electrical connector that plugs in. Instead vampire splicing. Not a fan of this . specially with water submerging the undercarriage. will not do very well . ....IF YOU GUYS CAN DESIGN TO CLIP TO EXISTING HARNESS, ID BUY IT OVER , AND OVER. THAT RIG IDEA OF TAPPING INTO WIRE NEEDS TO GOOOOO!

[@your2nd]

This video would convince me not to buy these !
