Jeep CJ7 Side Marker Lights

Side marker lights both illuminate the surroundings and signal your driving intentions to others by showing where you are moving. If you are looking for side marker lights for the Jeep CJ7, then you should know that there are several different brands and varieties available that offer a diverse selection of colors and styles.

What is an OEM side marker light?

In the world of car production, no company works alone. Jeep contracts with several outside manufacturers to make some of the smaller parts of each of its vehicles, including the CJ7. Those outside companies are called the OEMs, or original equipment manufacturers. The parts that they produce are also known as OEM components. It is significant when a light is labeled as an OEM part for the Jeep because it will be an exact replacement of the unit that the car had when it was brand new. So if you want the same marker lights that your CJ7 had when it came off the factory line, look for a model listed as OEM. Anything that is not OEM is called aftermarket. These might differ in some way, such as having a different shade, tint, or color temperature. Some owners may choose aftermarket parts in order to add their own customized looks to their Jeep.

What lens colors are available for Jeep CJ7 lights?

The three main colors are amber, red, and clear. Note that the lens is the plastic covering over the bulb. A bulb sheds a plain light and the lens tints the color to create a colored glow. In some cases, such as turn indicators or brake lights, the color of the light is mandated by law. In others, the specific color is purely cosmetic. Within the category of each color, different units might be brighter or darker.

What is color temperature in car lighting?

All light bulbs have a characteristic called color temperature. This is a measure of the shade of white that the bulb creates and has nothing to do with heat. A low color temperature makes a yellow light. A medium color temperature produces a plain white light. A higher color temperature starts to make a blue light, like daylight. The LED bulbs that more later-model lighting kits use tend to fall in the middle or towards the upper end, so they have white to blue glows. The older halogen bulbs have lower color temperature and shed a yellow light. You can choose a specific color temperature for a distinctive look for your side marker lights or opt for the original model that came with your Jeep CJ7.
