Products & Compliance

Are Eleron lights truly plug and play?

Most Eleron automotive lights are designed for plug-and-play installation as direct OEM replacements using the existing wiring harness. Many customers can install with basic tools. Some vehicles or trims may require coding, adapters, or minor adjustments—please check the product page for any model-specific notes.

Are Eleron lights street legal in the US?

Many Eleron headlights and taillights are available in DOT- and SAE-compliant versions for use on public roads in the United States. Look for DOT/SAE markings and compliance notes on the product page. Items sold for off-road or show use only are clearly labeled as such.

Do Eleron headlights have DOT/SAE markings?

Where applicable, our US-spec headlights and taillights carry DOT and SAE markings on the housing or lens. Check the product photos and specifications on each page to see the exact markings and compliance details for your chosen kit.

How are Eleron products tested for safety and quality?

Eleron lighting is engineered to meet strict performance and durability standards, including photometric and electrical testing, heat and moisture testing, and long-term LED reliability checks. For DOT/SAE-compliant products, designs are built to meet the relevant US lighting standards for on-road use.

What warranty do Eleron products come with?

Eleron offers a comprehensive 1-year warranty on automotive lighting products. This covers manufacturing defects, premature LED failure, and moisture ingress under normal usage conditions. The warranty starts from the date of purchase and includes repair or replacement; if that is not possible within a reasonable time, we may offer a refund.

Shipping & Delivery

Do you offer free shipping in the US?

Yes. We offer free standard shipping to most addresses within the United States from our US warehouses. Remote locations or special delivery services may incur a surcharge shown at checkout. When local stock is unavailable, some orders may dispatch from a partner warehouse; any extended lead time will be shown before you pay.

Most US orders ship from our US warehouses and arrive in about 4–8 business days. Orders are generally processed within 24–48 hours on business days. We use reputable carriers such as UPS, FedEx, USPS, DHL and other major parcel services to provide reliable, tracked delivery.

What is your order processing time?

Orders are typically processed within 24–48 hours on business days. Weekend orders are processed on the next business day. You'll receive a tracking number via email once your order ships.

What are the delivery times to different US regions?

Most shipments to the contiguous United States arrive in about 4–8 business days once dispatched. Deliveries to remote areas or US territories may take longer. If an item ships from a partner or manufacturer warehouse, the estimated delivery time will be shown at checkout before you place your order.

Can I track my order?

Returns & Exchanges

What is your return policy?

We offer a 14-day money-back guarantee. You have 14 days from the day you receive your item to request a return. Items must be in the same condition as received, unused, with original packaging and all accessories included. Please obtain a Return Authorization before sending items back.

How do I return an item?

To return an item: 1) Contact Customer Support at support@eleronlights.com with your order number and reason for return. 2) Receive the return address and Return Authorization. 3) Ship the item back and share the courier name and tracking number with us.

What are the requirements for returns?

For a successful return, items must be unused, undamaged, in original packaging with all accessories, and include proof of purchase. Returns that show use beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods may be subject to a reasonable deduction for diminished value.

Who pays for return shipping?

Customer responsibility: if the return is due to preference (change of mind, wrong item ordered, etc.), the customer covers return shipping. Our responsibility: if the item is damaged, defective, or incorrect due to our error, we cover return shipping and provide a prepaid return label.

Refunds

How long does it take to get a refund?

Refunds are processed within 2–5 business days after we receive and inspect your returned item. The refund will be credited back to your original payment method. Bank or card processing times may add a few additional days depending on your financial institution.

How will I receive my refund?

Refunds are issued to the same payment method used for the original purchase. For card payments, the refund goes back to the card; for PayPal, it returns to your PayPal account. For security reasons, we cannot refund to a different method.

Are there any items that cannot be returned?

Most items can be returned, but some exceptions apply: custom or personalized products; items damaged by misuse; products modified or altered; final-sale items; and gift cards. Contact us if you have questions about your specific item.

Warranty & Quality

What does the warranty cover?

Our 1-year warranty covers manufacturing defects, premature LED failure, moisture ingress under normal use, and electrical component faults. The warranty starts on your purchase date and requires proof of purchase. Where a defect is confirmed, we will repair or replace the item; if that is not possible within a reasonable time, we may offer a refund.

How do I make a warranty claim?

Contact us as soon as you notice the issue with your order number, photos or videos of the defect, and any troubleshooting steps taken. If a return is required, we’ll provide instructions and a prepaid label for qualifying cases. When in stock, replacements are typically dispatched within 2–5 business days; if out of stock, we’ll offer an ETA or a refund option.

What is NOT covered by warranty?

The warranty does not cover installation errors or damage, modifications or custom work, water damage from submersion, damage from accidents or collisions, normal wear and tear, misuse or improper operation, or issues caused by other aftermarket modifications.

Installation & Support

How difficult is it to install Eleron lights?

Most Eleron lights are designed for plug-and-play installation using the existing vehicle connectors. Installation time varies by vehicle (approximately 30–120 minutes). Some models or trims may require coding or adapters—check the product page for any notes.

What tools do I need for installation?

Basic tools are usually sufficient: Phillips and flat screwdrivers, a socket set, and trim removal tools. All standard mounting hardware is included. Some vehicles may require coding or additional adapters, which are noted on the product page if needed.

Do I need professional installation?

Professional installation isn’t required for most products, but we recommend it if you’re unfamiliar with vehicle electrics or your model has complex systems. Your warranty remains valid when installed correctly following our instructions.
