Frequently Asked Questions – Machter Tail Lights

1. What is included in a tail light kit?

Our tail light kits typically include the tail light housing, necessary bulbs (if applicable), and plug-and-play wiring for easy installation. Specific inclusions may vary by vehicle model.

2. Are LED tail lights better than standard bulbs?

Yes, LED tail lights offer longer lifespan, quicker response time, and better energy efficiency compared to standard bulbs. They also provide a modern aesthetic.

3. Can I install tail lights myself?

Many of our kits are designed for DIY installation with basic tools. However, we recommend professional installation if you're unsure about the process.

4. Are these tail lights street-legal in Australia?

Yes, our automotive tail lights are designed to comply with Australian road safety regulations. Always check local laws for specific requirements.

5. Do you have tail lights for my ute?

We stock a wide range of ute tail lights compatible with popular models like the Toyota Hilux, Ford Ranger, and more. Use our search filters or contact us for assistance.

6. Are smoked tail-lights legal in Victoria?

They’re legal only if the stop/indicator lamps still meet ADR 49/00 photometric standards; excessively dark tints can trigger a defect notice.

7. Will PX Ranger LED tails throw a bulb-out warning?

No—Machter integrates load-match resistors so the BCM reads correct current draw.

8. Do kits include wiring harnesses and seals?

Yes, each pair arrives with plug-and-play looms and pre-fitted rubber gaskets to keep moisture out.

9. Can I mix LED tail-lights with halogen indicators?

ADRs permit mixed sources provided brightness and flash rate stay within spec; the bundled resistors ensure the correct 60–120 flashes per min.

10. Are sequential indicators built in—and are they legal?

Many Machter tail-light sets feature sequential amber strips; ADR 6/00 allows sequences as long as the full indication is visible within 0.4 seconds.

11. How water-resistant are the housings?

IP67 sealing prevents dust ingress and allows brief submersion—ideal for 4WD creek crossings.

12. Do I need to inform my insurer after fitting aftermarket tail-lights?

Best practice is to list any non-OEM lighting upgrades on your policy to avoid claim disputes.

13. What warranty applies?

As with headlights, tail-lights fall under the Australian Consumer Law’s consumer guarantees, giving you reasonable durability protection well beyond 12 months.
