The Raxiom RAXJ178741 Axial Series 7-inch LED headlights bring CREE LED technology to the round headlight openings of the 1997-2006 Wrangler TJ and 2007-2018 Wrangler JK.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Jeep Wrangler years do the Raxiom RAXJ178741 headlights fit?The RAXJ178741 is compatible with the 1997-2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ and the 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK. Both platforms use a 7-inch round headlight opening that accepts the Axial Series housing directly.
What type of LED does the Raxiom RAXJ178741 use?The RAXJ178741 uses 10W CREE LED emitters. CREE is a leading manufacturer of high-output LED chips known for consistent lumen output, color accuracy, and thermal management.

How long do the Raxiom RAXJ178741 LED headlights last?The RAXJ178741 carries an estimated 50,000-hour lifespan rating. Under normal driving conditions, this translates to many years of reliable operation before any degradation in light output is expected.
Does the RAXJ178741 include DRL and turn signal functions?Yes. The RAXJ178741 includes an integrated DRL (daytime running light) and an integrated turn signal function within the headlight assembly itself. This simplifies installation on both TJ and JK platforms.
