The Rugged Ridge Door Spring Kit (part 11819.01) is a pair of thermoplastic olefin (TPO) spring clips designed to replace the factory mechanism and reliably hold the interior light switch in the correct position. They're molded in black to match interiors and engineered for a direct fit on 1997–2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this kit keep the interior light from draining the battery?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe springs hold the door-mounted light switch in a stable position so the dome light does not remain engaged after you remove the doors.
