For 2008-2017 Freightliner Cascadia Black Headlights Headlamps Left,Right

Running a cracked, yellowed, or dim headlight on a Class 8 semi truck is not just an eyesore — it is a DOT inspection failure waiting to happen and a genuine hazard on dark interstates. This direct-fit black headlight assembly pair for the 2008-2017 Freightliner Cascadia gives you a clean, confident solution: a matched left-and-right set engineered to drop straight onto your cab with zero drilling, zero splicing, and zero guesswork. Compatibility covers the full first-generation Cascadia production run from model year 2008 through 2017, including both the Cascadia 113 and Cascadia 125 wheelbase configurations — the two most common variants in US long-haul and regional fleets. Before ordering, confirm your build year and verify the connector plug style against your factory harness, particularly if your truck was produced near a mid-cycle refresh boundary. This kit supplies one driver-side (left) assembly and one passenger-side (right) assembly so both lamps match in output and appearance from day one. • Complete matched pair — driver and passenger side included in one order, eliminating the hassle of sourcing each side separately and ensuring consistent light output and aesthetics across the cab • Aggressive blacked-out housing finish replaces the dated chrome OEM look, popular among owner-operators and fleet managers modernizing older Cascadia units without a full cab overhaul • Direct OEM-style plug-and-play fitment aligns with factory mounting points and electrical connectors, meaning a clean installation with no rattles and no modifications to the factory harness • Sealed housing construction minimizes internal condensation, shielding bulbs and reflectors from moisture ingress that causes premature failure and foggy beam patterns • Clear polycarbonate lens maintains maximum light transmission while resisting road debris impact and UV degradation better than aging OEM plastic • Purpose-built for the commercial trucking environment — designed to withstand highway vibration, temperature cycling, and the sustained duty cycles of long-haul operation • Housing color: Black • Lens material: Clear polycarbonate • Position: Left (driver side) + Right (passenger side) • Fitment: 2008-2017 Freightliner Cascadia 113, Cascadia 125 • Mounting: OEM-spec bolt pattern, direct bolt-on replacement • Electrical connection: Factory plug-and-play connector (verify plug style against your harness year) • Bulb type: Refer to your OEM bulb specification for H7/H11 or equivalent — bulbs may not be included • Sold as: Matched pair (2 assemblies per order) The housings are constructed from impact-resistant ABS plastic — the same class of engineering polymer used across OEM-level commercial truck components — finished in a durable matte-black coating that holds up against UV exposure, fuel splatter, and road wash. The lens faces are formed from optical-grade polycarbonate, a material that offers roughly 250 times the impact resistance of glass while maintaining the optical clarity needed for proper beam pattern projection. The internal reflector bowls are precisely shaped to work with standard bulb geometry, so you get a focused, DOT-compliant beam rather than the scattered output that worn or cracked OEM units produce. The sealed perimeter gasket between the housing and lens is designed to resist water intrusion across a wide temperature range, from desert highway heat to upper-Midwest winter cold, which is critical for protecting the bulb socket contacts and reflective coating inside. Installation is straightforward for any shop technician or mechanically confident owner-operator and can typically be completed in under an hour per side. Begin by disconnecting the truck's battery to eliminate any electrical hazard. Open the hood and locate the headlight retaining hardware — usually three to four bolts or screws securing each assembly to the mounting bracket. Remove the fasteners and gently pull the assembly forward, taking care not to stress the wiring harness. Disconnect the factory electrical plug by pressing the release tab and pulling straight back. Inspect the plug terminals for corrosion; clean with electrical contact cleaner if needed. Unbox the new assembly, confirm it matches the side you are replacing (driver left, passenger right), and connect the factory plug until it clicks firmly. Seat the assembly into the mounting bracket, aligning all factory bolt holes. Hand-tighten the retaining hardware first to confirm alignment, then torque to OEM spec. Reconnect the battery and test both low and high beams before closing the hood. Check aiming after installation — particularly if the truck is loaded differently than during original factory calibration. • 1x Left (driver-side) black headlight assembly — Freightliner Cascadia 2008-2017 • 1x Right (passenger-side) black headlight assembly — Freightliner Cascadia 2008-2017 • Mounting hardware may vary by supplier lot; verify before installation • Bulbs not included unless explicitly noted on the product listing At Expedite, we stock parts built for the trucks that actually move freight in this country.
