To those who have accidentally removed a tail light or two……

[RCC]

Ive seen just about every gladiator that’s wheeled hard get a tail light knocked out. When this happens is the tail light usually reusable and the bolts shear off or does it mean the tail light is garbage?

I know damage will occur but I like being ready for repairs when it happens. I’ve read mixed reviews on the oracle tail lights.

To those who have forcibly removed tail lights care to share their opinions?

It depends but when it happened on our Gladiator, there was still enough there to reinstall it.

I don't know if the JT has the same mounting bracket attached to the light as the JL but that is where mine broke. The replacement plastic bracket was like $10 from the dealership.

ETA: This thingy

Unfortunately, it's different on the JT.

The biggest problem with the Oracle flush mounts, they either work or they don't.
But they won't give a refund because you "installed" the light to find out it didn't work.

I have the oracle flush mounts, have been working fine, wanted to switch up to an led so chose em over other options, have been fine, think they might flicker sometimes though but not sure

Hope you don’t have blind spot detection or those tail lights are $500 a piece. Ask me how I know….

I do.

So wait it’s not all one piece anymore? On my 2018 JL it was a total assembly.

So how have these been holding up?

They were good, overall I was pretty happy with them. You do have to set the LED with tazer if you don’t as I didn’t have led from factory, otherwise the reverse lights were temperamental. Back up lights are actually really bright. I would recommend them from my experience

Thanks... I've got one busted housing and I keep expecting it to fail
