Reviews for J.W. Speaker 0347531 279 J Series LED Tail Light Kit for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler
very bright, feel much safer. will collect minute droplets of water vapor (not sure where it is entering) but dries quickly
Works and fits well. Only reason I did not give it 5 stars is that it at times builds up with moisture inside the glass and fogs up the lens. Will be foggy one day and clear the next. Water getting into it somewhere. Not a winter thing - happens in summer too.
These installed easily, add a nice stylish touch to the back of the Jeep, and the tail and brake lights illuminate brightly and instantly. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because the reverse lights are significantly dimmer than the factory bulb; almost useless, honestly. I'm disappointed in that aspect, but still like them enough otherwise to keep them. It makes sense though why the Qtec branded LED tail lights use a regular incandescent bulb for the reverse signal.
Super easy installation all I need was pliers and a Phillips head screw driver. However, it came with no instructions. Was simple enough to YouTube how to install them though. Definitely clean up the back of the JKU look much better than stock and are way brighter. Have a 4 out of 5 because they look blacked out in the pictures but in person they are clear not frosted black.
Fit and finish are excellent. Red lights are bright and blade look is cool. Reverse light is for me dim and has a rather dispersed beam. That being said when looking at rear view camera display the lighting is brighter and more focused than OEM. Package did not have any installation instructions included, thankfully it is on Quadratec site. Happy with results and would recommend to others.
Replacement screws rusted and one broke off when attempting to remove light for maintenance. Screw is inside plastic frame and cannot remove or add 4th screw when replacing light. Inferior screws. Should not rust and break. Lights have been on vehicle for 2.5 years.
I really like the headlights, but the tail lights appear to be too small for a 2016 JK. The light fits perfectly on a 2007-2012. Not so perfect on a 2013+ I've sent an email to JW Speaker. The installation video instructs you to slide the light around to find the best tight fit. The light is not large enough to slide over the raised bump on the upper inner corner. I have a friend with a 2007 Wrangler. the light fits the older wrangler perfectly. This weekend I'm going to try to move the tail light mount clips up a little to see if I can improve the fit.
Still on the fence. Have some time to decide. Kinda look cheap for the $$. Backup light is worthless. Led blades look cool and are very bright. Don’t get all the great reviews. For this kind of money I expected more. Maybe you’re paying for longevity vs the others. Time will tell.
Why don’t you emphasize the resistor and bracket in the video?????? If you don’t attach to something it keeps banging against the side of panel. Very disturbing!
Huge disappointment. Bought these because they were beautiful. Aside from that everything else is flawed. They're a quarter inch smaller all the way around so if your jeep is a few years old the paint will have scratched off where the stock ones lined up. When the new ones go on you can see the ring all the way around. Second. No way to make them sit flush. As online reviews have said. Causes gaps all around. When screwing them in they don't sit flush which cracks the lens as also mentioned in reviews. I am a diy guys so I know how to install and make things work. Staying away from jws.
