Lighting the Path: The Best LED Light Kits for Your Golf Cart

Updated December 2022

If you've got a stock golf cart, odds are that one of the first accessories you will want to add are lights. It's time to add a light kit to your golf cart. But where do you begin? 

LED Golf Cart Lights - The Best & the Brightest

First and foremost, it is crucial that you only consider LED golf cart light kits when shopping for your ride. LED (or, light-emitting diode) bulbs are brighter than their halogen ancestors, are around 80% more energy efficient, last longer, and don't heat up, clearly leaving these as the superior choice. 

Though LED golf cart lights (and LED lights in general) tend to cost more upfront, the savings add up quickly, making these the lights of the future.

Golf Cart Lights for Club Car, EZGO, and Yamaha

The next most significant deciding factor in purchasing an LED light kit is knowing the correct make, model, and year of your golf cart.

Between Club Car, EZGO, and Yamaha golf carts, differently-shaped headlights mean that not every option is cross-compatible. To learn about the best LED lights for your golf cart, look below for a comprehensive breakdown of what kit will work best for your vehicle.

Basic Light Kits and Street-Legal Light Kits

In addition to the different golf cart manufacturers, the other option you have is between a basic light kit and a street-legal light kit.

A basic light kit will give your golf cart headlights and tail lights.

This increases your visibility and makes driving your golf cart much safer.

However, a basic light kit doesn't include all the other bells and whistles like brake lights, a turn signal kit, or a horn.

Street-legal light kits on the other hand, provide you with a headlight and tail light kit but also get you a turn signal assembly, horn, and brake lights for maximum signaling capability.

Want to get your golf cart street legal certified? This is the kit for you!

EZGO LED Light Kits 

For drivers of EZGO carts, we have kits that are compatible with TXT, Freedom, Valor, and S4 vehicles.

However, kits can also vary within models based on the year they were built.

For example, dimensions are slightly different between an EZGO TXT golf cart built in 1996 and a TXT built in 2014. 

We've provided a list below of the various EZGO golf cart models and the light kits we have available.

As a pioneer in the golf cart world, Club Car has held true to many of its original designs, so some modern light kits will fit models dating back to 1982.

Golf Cart Under Glow Lights (*Bonus!*)

Besides headlights, you can also install under glow lights for some extra flare at night!

The LED underglow lights can run underneath the body of your cart, in the wheel well, under the roof, or wherever else you want to add a unique look!

Need some interior lights? They work great for that as well!

The LED strip lights that we sell, have 20 feet of flexible, weather-resistant RGB lights for maximum flexibility.

The best part? The adhesive backing makes mounting your light strips a breeze! 

Golf Cart Headlights for Every Cart 

Another question that often gets asked regarding golf cart lights, is what voltage do I need in order for them to work?

Back in the day, all golf cart lights operated only on 12 volts. This meant a majority of electric golf carts would need to purchase and install a voltage reducer in order to ensure their lights didn't burn out.

Thankfully, those days of burning out your LED tail lights are behind us!

At Golf Cart Stuff, every golf cart light kit we sell has either our FlexVolt™ technology or a built-in voltage reducer.

What is FlexVolt™ you ask? It is the technology that allows our LED lights to operate on 12-48 volts without needing a voltage reducer!

This takes one less step out of the installation process and makes installing your light kits simple and easy. 

Installing the best LED lights for your golf cart is a no-brainer for drivers who expect the best out of their vehicles.

No matter what kind of golf cart you have or which style golf cart lights you want to add to it, trust that Golf Cart Stuff™ has you covered with a catalog full of intentionally selected premium-grade products.
