THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO AXIS SERIES LED TAIL LIGHTS FOR THE NISSAN GU PATROL (2005-2016): INSTALLATION, FITMENT, AND WHY THEY’RE WORTH THE HYPE

Ready to give your Nissan GU Patrol a serious visual and performance boost? Our Axis Series LED Tail Lights are more than just a simple upgrade; they’re a statement. Designed and tested for the harsh Australian outback, these lights combine killer looks with uncompromised durability. We’ll show you why they’re the go-to choice for Patrol owners across the country.

WHY OUR PATROL TAIL LIGHTS STAND OUT FROM THE REST

  • Sleek, Modern Design: Our Axis Series tail lights were designed with a sleek, blacked-out finish and an inbuilt reflector to give your Patrol a clean, aggressive look.

  • Built to Last: With an IP66 rating, these lights are 100% dustproof and pressure wash safe. The tough polycarbonate lens is also shockproof, waterproof, and UV-resistant, ensuring they can handle whatever you throw at them.

  • Unmatched Brightness: Powered by the latest Cree LED technology, our lights are up to 70% brighter than stock for the brake, DRL/Parker, indicator, and reverse functions, ensuring you’re seen on the road.

  • Straightforward Installation: Installation is designed to be as simple as possible. While some models may require additional wiring for the rear bumper lights, our lights come with pre-mounted 50W load resistors to prevent hyper flashing or warning lights.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTALLATION GUIDE

TOOLS YOU’LL NEED:

  • A flat-head screwdriver or trim removal tool

  • A Phillips head screwdriver

  • Your new HIMOD tail lights

  1. Open your tailgate and locate the bolts holding the factory tail light in place.

  2. Unscrew and gently pull the tail light assembly away from the vehicle.

  3. Disconnect the factory wiring harness.

  4. Connect your new HIMOD tail lights. Your main lighting functions (brake, park, indicators) can be hooked directly to the factory wiring.

  5. For full functionality: Connect the lights into the rear bumper light harness. Note that some Australian Patrol models (DX and ST) may require you to tap into your current working tail lights to complete the installation.

  6. Align the new light assembly and clip it into place. Re-insert the screws to secure it.

  7. Repeat for the other side and test all functions to ensure they're working correctly.

COMMON QUESTIONS

  • Q: Do these LED tail lights cause hyper flashing or a fast blink?
    A: No. Our tail lights come with pre-mounted 50W load resistors to ensure the indicators flash at the correct rate, just like your factory lights.

  • Q: Are these Patrol LED tail lights waterproof and pressure wash safe?
    A: Yes, absolutely. With a high IP66 rating, our lights are designed to be completely dustproof and pressure wash safe. They are sealed to prevent water ingress, so you can clean your vehicle without any worries. We recommend being at least 30cm away when pressure washing.

  • Q: What is the warranty period for HIMOD 4X4 tail lights?
    A: We stand by the quality of our products with a comprehensive 2-year warranty. This covers any manufacturing defects, giving you total peace of mind.

  • Q: What is the best way to care for and maintain my new LED tail lights?
    A: The durable materials and sealed design of our lights require minimal maintenance. Simply keep them clean with a pH-neutral wash. After any intense off-roading in salt or dirt, ensure to give them a good clean.

FINAL THOUGHTS: ARE THEY WORTH IT?

If you're looking for a simple, high-impact upgrade that delivers both style and rugged performance, the Axis Series LED Tail Lights from HIMOD are a perfect choice. They're easy to install, built for Aussie conditions, and backed by a solid warranty. Stop settling for stock and get a set that’s worth the hype.
