Puddle Lights

What puddle lights are

Puddle lights are small lights in the bottom of the doors or under the side mirrors that light up the ground when you unlock or open the car, so you can see where you are stepping. Many replacement puddle lights are LED projectors that also shine a logo or design onto the ground.

Door vs. mirror puddle lights

• Door puddle lights sit in the lower edge of the door panel and usually replace the factory courtesy light.
• Side mirror puddle lights sit under the mirror housing and light the area beside the car, common on trucks and SUVs.

How to choose

• Match the make, model and generation in the listing. Housing shapes change between generations.
• Check whether your car already has factory puddle or courtesy lights. Plug-in replacements need the factory socket.
• Pick the design you want projected, where the listing offers several.

Fitting

Most direct-fit puddle lights pop out of the door or mirror with a plastic trim tool, unplug, and the new light plugs into the same connector. No wiring is needed when the car has factory lights in that spot.
