Tail Lights for Cars & Trucks

Tail Lights for Cars & Trucks

Aftermarket tail lights refresh the rear styling of cars, trucks, and SUVs with updated LED lighting technology, custom lens treatments, and sequential turn signal patterns. Quality tail light replacements install into factory mounting locations without modification and include all required wiring harnesses for plug-and-play installation.

Popular Tail Light Styles

Popular tail light options include full LED tail light assemblies with improved brightness and faster response times compared to factory incandescent designs, smoked lens tail lights for a blacked-out custom appearance, red-clear or red-chrome lens assemblies for a cleaner factory-plus look, sequential LED turn signal tail lights that sweep outward from center to edge when signaling, and OEM-spec replacement tail lights for damage repair and restoration builds.

Do aftermarket tail lights require any wiring modifications?

Most vehicle-specific aftermarket tail lights include plug-and-play wiring connectors that connect directly to the factory tail light harness without splicing or rewiring. Sequential turn signal tail lights may require an LED-compatible flasher relay module to prevent hyperflashing caused by the low amperage draw of LED bulbs compared to the factory incandescent design. Most complete LED tail light assemblies include the necessary relay or adapter in the kit.

Are smoked tail lights street legal?

The legality of smoked tail lights varies by state and jurisdiction. Most regulations require that tail lights meet minimum visibility distance requirements and that turn signals be clearly amber or red in color from a specified distance. Lightly tinted or smoke-tinted tail lights that still meet visibility and color requirements are generally permitted. Deeply tinted tail lights that significantly reduce visibility may fail inspection and be prohibited under state vehicle codes.
