The Ultimate Guide to Drakon Series LED Tray Tail Lights – Install, Fitment & Why They’re Worth the Hype
If you're in the market for angle eye tail lights, halo-style tray tail lights, or just want something that makes your rig stand out without compromising on quality – the Drakon Series LED Tray Tail Lights are made for you.
These are not your average eBay lights. Sourced using high-quality Taiwanese components, sealed for Australian conditions, and packed with start-up animation and sequential indicators, the Drakon Series is a popular choice among custom tray builders and Jimny owners alike.

Why Drakon Series Tail Lights Stand Out
-
Angle Eye / Halo-Style DRLs for a distinctive look
-
Dynamic Start-Up Animation
-
Sequential Indicators for improved visibility
-
Dual Fitment Support – suitable for both custom trays and Suzuki Jimnys
-
Fully Sealed Housing for dust and water resistance
-
12V Wiring & Easy Mounting – compatible with most builds
-
Constructed with Premium Taiwan-Sourced Internals
-
Backed by a 2-Year Warranty from HIMOD
Unlike knock-offs, the Drakon Series is designed for harsh off-road use and precise fitment. Some cheaper copies have appeared recently, but keep in mind – original Drakon lights are built with quality components and undergo higher standards of production.
Tray Builds vs Jimnys – Fitment Explained
Originally designed for the Suzuki Jimny, the Drakon Series tail lights have quickly become a top choice for UTE and tray-build owners.
For Jimnys, they mount flush into the factory openings with minimal effort. For custom trays, they can be:
-
Bolt-mounted using existing studs
-
Adhesive-mounted using Sikaflex or similar bonding agents
Some tray backings may have a slight curve – this can be addressed with foam spacers or mounting plates. Refer to the Sikaflex install video above for a real-world example.
