What is accent lighting?
Definition
Accent lighting refers to a type of lighting design that emphasises certain objects. Its purpose is to create visual interest and thus draw attention to specific elements of a vehicle.
Functional LED lighting primarily serves a direct and practical purpose, whereas accent lighting is mainly intended for decorative purposes. When it comes to LED lighting, there are various factors to consider when choosing the right light. These include lumens, candelas, the light image and many other factors.
Advantages
It is difficult to list the advantages of accent lighting because there really are none. Accent lighting or ambient lighting is mainly used as a means of expression. It allows every trucker to personalise his or her vehicle and make it his or her own.

It is possible to name enough advantages about the LEDs that make accent lighting possible. Consider the following points:
- It is Energy Efficient
- LEDs have a longer lifespan than traditional lighting options such as halogen
- LEDs come in various types of colours making almost all colour combinations possible
- LEDs are recyclable which makes them sustainable in addition to all the above points
