XtraGlow Smoked LED Rear Combination Tail Lights for 1976–2006 Wrangler & CJ, Pair — DOT Certified, Multi‑Function

These replacement rear tail light assemblies are designed for vintage Jeep models including Wrangler YJ/TJ ranges and classic CJ5/CJ7/CJ8 models (see compatibility list). Each assembly features multi-function LEDs behind a smoked lens for a modern look while meeting DOT standards. They are sold as a pair (driver and passenger) and come with clear wiring conventions, mounting hardware and a bolt-in design that requires cutting and splicing the vehicle pigtail for installation.

What lighting functions and LEDs are included?

Each XtraGlow assembly combines multiple LEDs to handle brake, turn, tail, license plate and reverse duties in one compact unit. The lamp counts are separated by function so you know what to expect for visibility and styling.

• 16 red LEDs for brake, parking and directional functions
• 6 amber/white LEDs for license plate illumination
• 21 bright white LEDs dedicated to backup/reverse lighting
• 3 side reflector LEDs for added lateral visibility

Will these fit my Jeep and how easy is installation?

The housings are made as bolt-in replacements for many Wrangler and CJ model years, but fitment is model-specific—confirm the listed part numbers before buying. Installation requires basic tools, splicing the existing tail lamp pigtail to the new assembly, and may need light modifications on older vehicles.

• Compatible with 1997–2006 Wrangler, 1987–1995 Wrangler YJ, 1976–1986 CJ7, 1981–1985 CJ8, 1976–1983 CJ5
• Bolt center spacing approximately 2"; lens and housing removable for easier access
• Cut the stock pigtail and splice using supplied hardware; not a plug-and-play on all models

Do I need extra parts or wiring changes?

These LED assemblies wire to standard vehicle circuits but older incandescent systems can cause hyper-flashing or rapid blink rates. In those cases you may need a resistor or an electronic flasher; resistors are not included with the kit.

• Wire colors: white = ground, blue = reverse, black = tail/license/marker, red = stop/turn/brake
• If rapid flashing occurs, try a 5W 10Ω resistor or an electronic flasher (not included)
• Confirm wiring matches vehicle harness before cutting or splicing

Is this DOT certified and road-legal?

Yes—this XtraGlow rear combination tail light kit is DOT certified and designed to comply with road regulations when installed properly. The smoked lens provides the updated aesthetic while the internal LEDs meet required illumination functions.

• DOT certified for road use in applicable jurisdictions
• Includes side marker LEDs to maintain visibility with the smoked lens
• Maintain correct wiring and bulb function for legal operation

Who is this for: XtraGlow smoked square LED tail lights are built for Jeep owners restoring or updating older Wrangler and CJ models who want improved illumination, modern styling and DOT-compliant assemblies. They suit DIY mechanics comfortable with basic wiring and splicing, vehicle restorers seeking exact replacement part numbers, and drivers who want brighter reverse and brake lighting while keeping a smoked aesthetic. If you have a late-model vehicle with a modern electronic flash system this installation will be straightforward; for older incandescent systems plan on adding a resistor or updated flasher for correct blink rates.
