Nilight Jeep Cherokee LED Third Brake Light 1997–2001 — Direct-Fit, IP67 Sealed

Nilight's LED third brake light is a direct-fit replacement for Jeep Cherokee models 1997–2001 that upgrades the center high-mounted stop lamp to a brighter, longer-lasting LED assembly.

If you drive a Jeep Cherokee from 1997 through 2001 and need a reliable CHMSL (center high-mounted stop lamp), this Nilight LED unit swaps in without cutting or major modifications. Built by OEM-approved manufacturers from high-grade OE materials, it provides a modern LED source with fast illumination and improved visibility compared with older halogen-style fixtures. The assembly replaces part number 55155614AE and includes a high-density foam pad for a weather-tight fit.

Why choose this Nilight third brake light for my Cherokee?

The Nilight lamp offers brighter, quicker light output and improved durability versus the original halogen fixture. Faster illumination helps other drivers notice braking sooner, and LEDs require less maintenance over time. The unit is made to meet OEM fit and finish so installation restores the factory look.

• Direct replacement for part number 55155614AE
• Full LED light source with 4 high-efficiency LEDs
• Up to ten times brighter and faster lighting than typical halogen bulbs
• Manufactured to OEM-approved material standards

How difficult is installation — will I need tools or modifications?

Installation is plug-and-play and designed to use the factory mounting points and screws. No drilling or vehicle modification is required; simply remove the old unit, connect the wiring, and mount with the original fasteners. Use hand tools to avoid over-torquing plastic parts.

• Plug-and-play electrical connection — no rewiring needed
• Use factory screws for a secure fit; electronic tools may crack the housing
• Includes high-density foam pad to sit between lamp and vehicle body

Will this third brake light hold up in bad weather?

The housing is sealed with a high-density foam back and rated IP67 for protection against water and dust, so it resists snow, rain, and road spray. For the best long-term seal, apply butyl sealant around the fixture after installation to prevent moisture intrusion at the mounting seam.

• IP67-rated sealing for dust and water resistance
• High-density foam pad included for a tight body seal
• Recommended: apply butyl sealant after installation for added protection
