What Is a Door Light? Functions and Types
Door lights are small illumination units fitted inside or at the bottom of a vehicle’s door. They enhance safety by lighting the entry/exit area, make the car interior more visible at night, and can even feature logo projections on select models (e.g., VW, BMW).
- OEM vs. Aftermarket: OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) door lights ensure exact fit and function, while quality aftermarket units offer cost-effective alternatives.
- Types: Includes puddle lights, courtesy lights, logo projector lights, and integrated marker lights.
Identifying and Sourcing the Right Used Door Light
