Lighting upgrades for Kenner, wired and aimed by Big Easy Custom Cars.

Overview

Lighting Built for Kenner Driving

Kenner’s Laketown piers and the service roads by the airport are darker than the boulevards that lead to them. Lighting gets aimed so it helps out there without dazzling anyone on Veterans, and it is wired to last.

Lighting work is wiring work. Bars, pods, halos and replacement lenses are only as good as the loom behind them, so every fitting is wired on its own circuit, sealed, and aimed before it leaves. Kenner customers get a setup that turns on every time, not one that works until the first wet week.

Every lighting upgrades job here starts the same way: we look at the vehicle, agree what it needs, and put a price and a timeline in writing before anything is touched. You get updates while it is with us and the final say on every part that goes on. Kenner customers book by phone or by sending photographs, and the shop is in New Orleans.

Tell us what the vehicle needs and we will come back with options, a timeline and a price. Contact Big Easy Custom Cars to book lighting upgrades in Kenner.

Interior lighting options include:

  • LED lighting in footwells and door panels

We install:

  • Reverse lights for improved vision while backing up

  • Trail lights for additional forward and side illumination

These functional lighting options help support practical use of your vehicle in varied environments.

Testimonials

What Our Customers Have To Say

I added a new audio system and custom lighting, and the setup is exactly what I was hoping for. Clean installation, no messy wires, and the sound quality is a huge upgrade. The lighting gives it that extra touch without being too flashy.

Kevin T. Audio · Custom Lighting

I brought my Camaro in for custom paint and graphics, and I couldn't stop smiling when I saw it finished. The color depth and detail in the design came out even better than I pictured. People ask me about it everywhere I go now. The team really nailed the vision.

Tyler B. Camaro · Paint & Graphics

I've worked with shops before, but this was my first time doing full custom paint work. The finish is smooth, deep, and consistent across every panel. You can tell they take pride in their craft.
