  • Upgrade the look of your FIAT 500 with this easy to install Plug and Llay LED Tail Light Conversion Kit!
    This kit is consists of everything you need to easily convert your original style FIAT 500 tail lights to the newer European LED Style.
    You will receive a complete kit that will consist of a set of two Genuine FIAT LED Tail Lights that we imported from Italy along with Custom Plug and Play Harnesses with OEM Style Connectors.
    The tail lights have been modified to include a reverse light so that they will function properly when installed on a North American FIAT 500 (EU Versions have reverse lights in the bumper portion).
    This tail light kit will come with a reverse light installed and wired. You can also chose to upgrade to a High Output LED Reverse Light along with a custom resistor harness (if you chose). Simply select that option at check out.
    When you do we will change out the regular reverse bulb for the High Power LED version and include the needed harness so the kit will work seamlessly and does not set off any warning lights.
    With this complete conversion kit you will not need to cut, modify, solder or buy any additional items.
    Features:
    Genuine European FIAT 500 LED Tail Lights
    Tail Light is outfitted with a Reverse Light for North America
    Two Custom Plug and Play Harnesses (left and right) for seamless installation
    Direct replacement for all North American Versions of the FIAT 500
    Complete Kit with everything you need for a direct replacement
    No Permanent Modifications Required
    Fully Reversible
    Will not set off any warning lights
    LED Reverse Light Bulbs - optional (select at checkout)
    Carbon Fiber Inserts - optional (select at checkout)
    If you are using this kit on a Cabrio you will need to clearance the outer trim of the lights (see video) to clear the hinges
    At check out you will be given the option to upgrade the standard reverse lights to a High Power LED Set. LED bulbs will require a special resistor that will need to be installed. This is an easy add on (takes seconds) and if you select the LED upgrade the resistor needed will be included in the set.
    You will also be prompted at checkout to select whether or not you would like to add the carbon fiber inserts to your tail light kit. Please see video for details that show the inserts and the installation.

    Installed these and they look perfect! Easy to install as well! The only issue I ran into is that one of the LED lights does not work, but everything else 100%

    That's AWESOME! The Euro tail lights were one the biggest things I wanted to do when I still had my Abarth. I'll definitely get a pair the next time I have one.

    Guys! It's really not complicated for the LED. It's shown on the video and explained. The kit comes with the two splice connectors, simply one end to black and the other to green/white. Viola. Dont over think it.

      Seriously! He explains and shows exactly what to do at the 5:32 point. If clamping 2 wires is a struggle, you shouldn't be doing mods on your car . Lol

    FYI, if you have a convertible, you no longer need to modify the tail light housing for it to fit. They have included the option during checkout to indicate if you have a convertible and the housing is already cut out. Not sure why he says the harness has to match the correct lamp (RH to RH, LH to LH) or else it won't work because I put both harnesses side by side and they have the same wires going to the same spots, no difference at all between them.

    I know there would be very little demand for the Euro 500L rear light assembly. Do you know if the Euro version would fit on the US model? I want it to have the amber turn signals. You guys do such great work!

    Hello.... Thanks for the video...... i had already install original led lights in my 500X 2016, and i have light on in my cluster and the led lights remains on, not possible i guess from proxy alignment i guess, so i must put a resistor...... 21W 12v(8ohm 50watt) it should be ok??? Thank you....

    Does the assembly include Rear Fog Light? Moved to Spain and they are requiring rear fog light.

      At 5:32, he clearly says that to install the LED, you tap into the green/white wire and the black wire of the factory harness and then shows exactly how it's done. What is confusing you?

    They did not explain the resistance part well and in the video it is not clear which cables 2 and 3 but in my 2013 Abarth 500 there is 4 which is the same as cable 3 whatever, your video is not clear in that part

      At 5:32, he clearly says that you are tapping into the green/white wire and the black wire of the factory harness and then shows exactly how it's done. It doesn't matter how many wires you have, you just worry about the green/white and the black.
