Compact 18mm LED puddle lights that deliver 100–300 lumens, operate on 12V DC, and fit universal or OEM mirror/door mounts to improve ground-level visibility for GMC, Ford, Mustang, Lexus, Mini Cooper, Dodge and other models, also called courtesy entry lights or ground illumination lights, designed to project a downward-facing beam beneath the vehicle door or side mirror.
The featured product from our Auxiliary Lighting Collection — 10W Universal LED Puddle Lights (18mm Pair) — is a compact automotive accessory light built for installation in door panels, side mirrors, or lower door card surfaces.
Each module is a 12V DC-rated LED puck (18 mm form factor) using high-efficiency LED chips with a wide downward flood beam (≈120°–180°) for ground illumination. Typical lumen range across the range is ~100–300 lm per module, depending on color temperature and LED configuration; white options are specified at 5000–6000K for clear visibility, yellow variants at lower Kelvin for glare reduction.
Technical Specifications :
- Voltage: 12V DC (vehicle accessory circuit)
- Wattage: ~1–10W per module (product configured at 10W nominal)
- Polarity: many universal modules are polarity-sensitive — non-polarity versions available for true plug-and-play.
- Activation (trigger sources): door pin switch, dome light circuit, or keyless-entry unlock signal; aftermarket installs may require a relay to prevent parasitic drain.
- Mounting: mirror housing recess, door card screw/adhesive, or underside of door panel; vehicle-specific kits provide OEM-style snap fit.
- Options & variants: plain flood puck, RGB/logo projector variants, and sealed IP-rated housings for exterior exposure (check IP spec per SKU).
- Safety: supply fused harness recommended; recommended inline fuse 1–5A, depending on install and total circuit draw.
The collection integrates visual customisation options (logo projection, RGB settings) and safety features (yellow/amber for enhanced visibility near water). Products are designed to interoperate with 3-wire or 2-wire trigger logic, factory harnesses, and aftermarket relay kits, enabling plug-and-play OEM replacements or splice-in custom installs.
