Jeep Wrangler JK Side Mirror Cover LED Lights and Spare Tire Light:
The HE-JKMR upgrades side mirror covers with integrated running lights and turn signals for improved visibility and awareness. The HE-JWSTL replaces the spare tire light with a higher output brake light that mounts to the factory hub behind the spare wheel and connects to the brake light circuit. The 85 LEDs behind a tinted lens provide a more uniformed light output, compared with other brake lights on the market which use fewer and larger LEDs, resulting in a spotty beam pattern. Both of Heise’s new solutions provide an easy upgrade with big results for Jeep Wrangler 2007-2018 (excluding JL)* models. Available soon.

Jeep Wrangler JL 2018-up* Post Mount and Lightbar Brackets:
New light mounting solutions for Jeep Wrangler JL 2018-up* models are the first of their kind by Heise for the new JL. The JL pillar lightbar bracket (HE-JLAPB) uses anti-sway hardware specifically designed by Heise to prevent the weight of the lightbar from causing the bracket to move left and right. It is designed for a 50” straight Heise lightbar and incorporates two mounting locations for cube LED or working lights on each side. The HE-JLPMLB post mount has Heise LED cube light mounting options for the side or hood of the vehicle. The introduction of these new accessories allows 2018-up* Jeep JL owners to customize their ride with Heise LED lights. Available soon.

The iBEAM TE-AJPKT is designed for Jeep Wrangler 2007-2017 models and the 2018 Jeep JK*, fitting a wide range of spare tire setups.
