In this video, we show you how to install our Sequential LED Tail Lights for the 2018-2023 Jeep JL Wrangler. Not only will these tail lights give you a more modern appearance, but you’ll add dual reverse lights, a sequential turn signal, and a unique startup sequence.
Unlike many other aftermarket options on the market, these tail lights were designed with factory-style optics, to diffuse the light in a smooth, even appearance. The outer perimeter of the lamps illuminates in a solid bar for running and brake/turn lights. On the interior of the lamp, you’ll find a unique “infinity mirror” design, for a truly distinct and premium look.
Nightshade? No thanks. These tail lights are available in two lens colors, red and smoked. The smoked option is designed with tinted optical components, which provides a factory-quality smoked appearance - not a cheap painted look like others on the market.
These tail lights are packed with modern features, including a unique startup animation. Anytime the running light turns on, they will illuminate in a chasing sequence that is sure to turn heads.
The startup sequence won’t be the only thing turning heads. These tail lights also feature a sequential LED turn signal. Every time the turn signal is activated, amber LEDs sequence across the top of the lamp. To enable this feature, a simple wiring harness is included that will be run up to the front turn signals, and connected with a wire tap.
The stock tail lights come with a single reverse light in each lamp, and leave a lot to be desired. With dual LED reverse lights, the Form Lighting tails provide much more light when backing up at night.
Form Lighting tail lights are built with quality in mind and constructed using OEM-grade materials, including a UV-coated polycarbonate lens, automotive-grade LEDs and optics, and direct-fit connectors. Rest assured that the fit and finish of our lamps is superior to other aftermarket units.
Our tail lights for the Wrangler are plug-and play for the main functions, along with a single wire tap if you’d like to enable the sequential turn signal feature. They will fit perfectly, without any body gaps. Installation is a breeze and can be done in minutes. Unlike other options on the market, these tail lights are also fully compatible with the Wrangler’s blind spot detection system, if you have it. There are no blind spot system errors, flickering, or hyperflashing!
All Form Lighting products are rigorously tested for reliability, and backed by a two-year warranty. Email us with any questions at Contact@FormLights.com or call 636-748-4444.

    I installed these today on my 2020 JL without the sequential lighting. It was super easy with a flashlight and a 10mm socket, taking maybe 20 minutes end to end. Helpful notes - the plug has a way to clip it to the body of the light. Pay attention to how it is clipped before you unplug the old light. Then you can re-attach so the plug is not just dangling by the cables. Also worth repeating to take special care with the plastic screw. Pay attention to how tight it is when you first start to unscrew it, so you know how much to tighten it. And, the screw is easy to finger tighten at first to make sure you are not cross threading it. it should screw in easily for the first couple of rotations. Lights look great, way brighter than OEM with a modern look without too much "bling". Exactly what I was looking for.

    I installed these on my wife’s Jeep. These are great looking lights for sure. BUT, ONE THING…. These are only held in by the 3 screws that attach the main bracket to the actual taillight. The screws used are tiny and have very little grip. Just compare the OEM light bracket screws to the FORM light bracket screws. I upgraded my bracket screws for the FORM lights to #8 x ½” Pan Philips. I feel they are much more secure now. 👌🏼

    I wanted to wait a few weeks to do an update on my replacement Form Tail Light… First of all, the customer services communication was outstanding!!! BIG PROPS TO THEM Form Lighting made the issue of getting a replacement drivers side tail light very easy and seamless….I didn’t even need to send back the defective tail light. If you ever have problems with their lighting AND you’re within the warranty window, do not hesitate to call the customer service number. AND NOW THE ISSUSE The replacement worked great for a few days to a week and stopped working with the same problems that I had before …..drivers tail light not working but everything else working as they should (brake light & sequential turn). Again, I unplugged the light and plugged it back in…..I checked the fuses….even double checked the wire tap into the turn signal. Nothing seemed out of place. I just ran with it. The drivers tail light worked when it wanted to. I started thinking about any variables that could be in play. The only thing I thought of was the cold weather. I noticed that during cold temperatures the light would not work properly. I would say anything below 50 degrees F is when trouble starts for me. Anything above 50 doesn’t affect the light. I could try to troubleshoot electrical with any technical department Form Lighting might have, but I’m not savvy enough on a JL to do it. I love the look of the light when everything functions, but I’m out of the warranty window. I might go back to my factory halogens, buy another brand of LED tail lights, or move to a warmer climate LOL.

    Bought these in August but didn't install until October. I couldn't be happier with them!......until this past weekend when the tail light (when you just turn the lights on) portion on the driver's side quit working. The light illuminates when the brake is pressed, and the sequential turn works as expected. I noticed that after the jeep had been sitting for a few hours, the light works, but for a very short period of time (5 mins). Is it possible to get a replacement since I just installed them back in October?

    * Update * - installed these without the sequential turn signal wired in and they are amazing. the only thing i did not like and the WARNING i will give other people is the lights have metal threads for your plastic screw to secure the light to the body. THIS WILL WRECK YOUR PLASTIC SCREW!!! i removed the bracket for the screw to thread into and replaced it with the factory bracket that has the correct plastic threads and the rest of the install is easy. Original - cant wait to purchase these and love the fact that the turn signals will work without the squential portion wired up. those splice clips are nothing but a corrosion magnet and ill be researching a way to connect the sequential feature without splicing wires

    When you say repeat the same process on the passenger side, does that mean you need to run another yellow wire to the front drl? If so would it be easier to route both at the same time through the same pathing?

  • @formlighting

    @formlighting

    Жыл бұрын

    Hey there! Because you need each turn signal individually, you will need to run the yellow wire from the tail light up to the other front fender - you are correct. The included wire is only long enough to be ran on its dedicated side as to avoid any possible issues due to being too long, so you'll need to run each side separately. Let us know if you have any other questions!

    You will need to tap each turn signal wire to the turn signal on the front of the vehicle. Unfortunately, there is no way to separate turn/brake signal on these Jeeps coming from the tail light connector. However, the entire lamp will still flash as a turn signal, similar to the factory lamp, for road compliance.
