    Video Review & Installation

    Hey guys, Adam here with extremeterrain.com. And today, we're taking a closer look at and installing the Oracle LED Illuminated Spare Tire Wheel Well Ring Third Brake Light, available for the 1966 and newer CJ and Wrangler models. You should be checking this out, very simply put, if you're looking for one of the most common rear-end LED accessories for the Jeep. Now, this guy here is almost a universal fitment for most Jeep models from the CJ era to the TJ, JK, and JL. This basically puts an LED red ring light in conjunction with your third brake light inside of your spare tire. This is an extremely popular mod for Wrangler owners and Jeep owners alike, just because it is just gonna stand out and really grab the attention of people behind you. Now, this uses extremely bright LED technology inside of that ring to illuminate with that third brake light. And as you can see, it far outshines that factory third brake light. It's super bright, super attractive, and very noticeable.Now, keep in mind, guys, depending on the style of wheel that you're running for your spare tire, it's gonna make a difference on how much of this ring you can actually see once your spare tire is mounted. As you can see, we have a set of Mammoth wheels here, and those spokes are super far apart. So we get a lot of that ring coming through. If you have a wheel that has tighter spokes with smaller space in between, you might get a little bit less of that ring, but regardless, because that LED is so bright, you'll definitely be able to see it. And what I like about it is that it kind of reflects off the inner barrel of that spare wheel, so it gives it a little bit more character. Now, again, being more universal, depending on the style of the spare tire carrier that you're running on your Jeep, may change up the install just a bit, but nonetheless, the actual ring itself has three spokes that allow you to attach it to the carrier regardless of style.Each one of those spokes has two different mounting points or mounting holes rather, that you'll use the included self-tapping screws to get installed. So, if you have something that's a little bit different than our factory spare tire carrier on our '14 JK, you'll be able to get it mounted up regardless, and you'll be able to tap it into your factory wire loom. Now, what we're gonna be doing is using the outermost hole at the top spoke and the innermost holes on the other two spokes, and then tapping it into our third brake light wire, which is right behind that spare tire. Again, maybe a little bit different. Obviously, this goes all the way back to 1966, which is gonna be vastly different than what you have here today. But nonetheless, you can get it done in the driveway at home. Price-wise, you're looking at about 100 bucks, which I think is a very worthwhile price because this stands out so clearly at the rear end and grabs everyone's attention. I think it's a pretty worthwhile price to pay with a relatively simple install.Speaking of which, I'm giving it two out of three wrenches on our difficulty meter because there is a little bit of splicing involved, but it does use very easy, quick splice connectors to get the job done. All you have to do is open up that wire loom or that wire harness coming off of the factory brake light. That, in addition to drilling three very small pilot holes, so the self-tapping screws go in a little bit easier, but that may be changing depending on the spare tire carrier you have on your Jeep. I'm gonna walk you guys through that entire process. What do you say we get started?Tools used in the install include a drill and a small drill bit for your pilot hole, an impact gun, 21-millimeter deep socket, Phillips head socket bit, or you can use a Phillips head screwdriver, pair of wire cutters, and pliers. First step, of course, we have to get our factory spare tire out of the way. Now, if yours is factory, it's gonna look a little different than this. Ours are aftermarket Mammoth wheels. It doesn't really make a difference to the install. Just make sure you're getting it out of the way. I'm going to grab my 21-millimeter deep socket and get the three factory lug nuts off. All right. From there, take the tire off.Now, if you're working with a factory spare tire carrier, this install is gonna be the same for you. If you've got an aftermarket one, you may need to make some modifications or it may look a little bit different for the install, but for ours, we're going to install it right here in the middle. Now, as you can see, the lug studs are a little bit in the way, so you can't center the connector up here. It has to be a little off-center. Now, whether you want to put this to the right or to the left is completely up to you. You can even put it somewhere toward the bottom if you'd like. I'm gonna keep it a little bit more toward the top just so our wiring is a little bit easier to reach the factory wiring for the third brake light. I'm gonna install this just like that. So I'm gonna use this top hole here that's inner, and I'm gonna use the outer holes for those two because these ones are in the center here. So obviously, it's not gonna work. So I'm gonna screw in this middle one first, and then hit the two ends.All right. So what I'm gonna do is set my bit...what I'm gonna do is take a Phillips head bit on my impact gun. I'm gonna center that, just making sure it's completely centered, I'm gonna go right in here at the top. Do the same thing for the other two, just making sure it's completely straight. All right. Repeating that for the other two. All right. It looks like the holes on the outer ones are a little bit more difficult than the top one. This is going into straight plastic, this one's got a little bit more of a metal ring around the edge. So I'm gonna drill a pilot hole. That's gonna be making it super easy to use the self-tapping screws included in the kit. So I'm gonna grab a bit smaller than the screws itself just to get it started, making sure that I'm not going in too deep because we don't have to go in too deep. Obviously, it's about a half an inch to a little bit more than a half an inch. So drill your pilot holes for the other two, and then we can tap them in. Perfect.All right. Same thing on the other side. All right. With those pilot holes in place, let's screw this guy in. Perfect. Repeat that on the other side. Now, how you want to wire these or where I should say will be up to you. If you wanna tuck it down a little bit farther, you can. If you wanna pull this plastic cover off and go a little bit higher, you can. I'm gonna go straight back right into this wire loom here. Either way, you're gonna need to grab a knife to cut this netting aside so we can access the two wires, the ground, and the positive underneath that. So, I'm just gonna use my knife here, make a small incision right in that net without damaging the wire. I'm gonna switch over to these wire cutters just to snip away some of this netting here, get a little bit better access to the wires underneath. Obviously, whatever tool you'd like to use to get that done is up to you. I just find this to be a little bit easier. Just wanna make sure you're not damaging any of those wires. That wire net is super stubborn. All right. Back over to my knife and just get that last bit off.So now we have easy access to the ground and the power to tap into. All right. At this point, we can pull this back a little bit and expose both wires. Take those quick splice connectors, and you're gonna clamp it onto the black and clamp another one onto the white. The black is your ground, the white with the orange stripe is your power. Now, if your colors are different than what we have here, you might wanna grab a light tester, hit the brakes, and see which one of these is actually your power and ground. But if it's the same color as ours, you know which one's which. So we're gonna take this clamp, insert that on there, grab pliers, clamp it down. All right. Once you clamp that down, it's gonna close up and snap shut. And that's how you know it's got a good bond with the wire underneath that black cover. And do the same thing with the white.Now, what we can do is bring up the LED harness on the back and it already has the male version, so these are the females. What we're gonna basically do is take the black wire from this harness and plug it in to the black connector that we just installed. All right. Plug that guy in and make sure it seats all the way. Plug in the red wire from this harness to the connector we installed on the white wire with the orange stripe. All right. Before you throw your spare tire back on, hit your brakes, or have a friend hit your brakes and verify that they work. And then we can put everything back together. Now, obviously, this next step is optional, but if you wanna clean this up a little bit and make sure this wire isn't just dangling here, I'm gonna run it right up against the back here and use the zip ties included in the kit to zip tie it back. Next, this is optional, but if you wanna clean this up a little bit so this wire isn't dangling there, I'm gonna run it right behind the LED bar there, and use a zip tie included in the kit to zip tie it up and back, and then we can snip off the excess of the zip tie. All right. At this point, you can just mount your spare tire once you know the ring light works. All right. If you have factory lugs, grab your 21 deep socket and tighten them down.That's gonna wrap up my review and install for the Oracle LED Illuminated Spare Tire Wheel Ring Third Brake Light, available for the 1966 and newer Jeep CJ and Wrangler models.

        OTTS and tuning list for Jeep Wrangler JL

        Jeep Wrangler JL certified options list for off-road tuning

        OffJeep. Ru store team welcomes you, dear reader, on the pages of our blog-magazine "Rusty Willys" :-). Someday we will definitely tell how this name was born, but for now we will talk on our Internet pages about off-road tuning, about some interesting projects, competitions, but most importantly about Jeep is a four-wheel drive brand that we truly love.

         

        The document "Vehicle Type Approval (OTTS)" for the new Jeep Wrangler JL 2019 + has been published. At present, it applies only to gasoline cars, in the fall it is expected to expand the document, including diesel versions. Unlike previous versions of Jeep, the list of approved accessories for the Wrangler JL included many off-road options:

        Download OTTS for Jeep Wrangler JL

        Dear clients. We all heard about the persecution on the roads by traffic police officers of motorists under article 12.5.1 of the administrative code, for the so-called "changes in the design. " However, not everyone was affected. Firstly, the main regulatory document for employees is the OTTS document or Vehicle Type Approval certificate. However, such a document itself appeared in 1998, and became mandatory for the official import of cars only in 2000. Which means that officially and legally, employees cannot find fault with cars "from the dashing nineties." The same applies to privately imported cars from the USA, as their VIN range is not included in the OTTS for European officially sold cars. That is, such a hole in the law really exists, but since the old cars are almost all rotten, and every day there are fewer of them, and the "American used" is now far from the most common type of car, and they can’t find fault with you. In addition, the technical regulation clearly states: "This regulation does not apply to cars over 30 years old with the original engine." Theoretically, if you have a Jeep Cherokee XJ 1990 years of release, they can’t show you anything on the road either. Another thing is that one must be able to defend one's rights, because unfortunately not all traffic police officers themselves are strong in such nuances.

        As for the Jeep Wrangler JL , which appeared several years later than the current technical regulations, the representative office took care of the owners.

        We have specifically identified the options prescribed in OTTS that are of the greatest interest specifically for off-road tuning:

        Vehicle equipment: in-vehicle emergency call system, combined ventilation, heating and air conditioning system (climate control system) with manual or automatic control, immobilizer, electronic stability control system, multimedia information center, rear and front view cameras, liquid crystal display, tire pressure monitoring system, rear upper brake light for spare wheel holder

        on request: side steps including in the form of pipes , exhaust tips, decorative door sills, side window deflectors, decorative radiator grille, mirror covers, gas tank flap, bam lane built-in winch with winch mounting elements , parking sensors, roof rails with mounts for roof rack, hood cover, hood deflectors, protective bar for windshield frame , fog lamps , front and rear towing eyelet, non-flexible splash guards mounted behind the wheels, spare wheel cover, soft top kit, lower engine protection , cargo net, kit for ride height increase , hood latch, wading air filter kit (off-road use) , wheel extensions k, removable front and/or rear doors, headphones for multimedia information center, parking aid (parktronic),

        So, let's figure out what this means in simple "jeep language". You can absolutely legally install additional lights, a bumper with a winch, a snorkel, expanders and mudguards, power thresholds and not register such changes. All you need is to print the OTTS from the link, and it is best to come to your official dealer and ask for a printout of this document (additions and extensions to this document are possible) with the dealer's seal. Well, it is advisable to put the details of the original Mopar, so as not to carry a stack of certificates with you.

        Of the most requested, the document did not include a towbar, and oversized wheels, but the wordings bumper with a built-in winch and a set of equipment for an air filter when overcoming a ford (used outside public roads) , alas, but leave some scope for the actions of employees traffic police and judges. However, for those who are not going to turn their Jeep into a super-rogue, such a legalization of the minimum tuning kit is a chic gift from the FSA.
