A set of tire change lights for illuminating the tires of an automotive vehicle during a tire-changing operation comprises four lights, each of which is mounted near the wheel well above a different one of the vehicle's tires. Each light includes a light source, such as a light bulb, which is mounted inside a lamp housing. The lamp housing, in turn, is mounted for manual or automatic reciprocation from a retracted position within a concealed stationary mounting case in the body of the vehicle to an extended position outside of the vehicle. The bottom wall of the lamp housing is provided with a lens which allows light from the light source to illuminate the area around the tire. The light source is electrically connected in series to the battery of the vehicle by means of a normally open control switch which closes to activate the light source when the lamp housing moves into its extended position and opens to deactivate the light source when the lamp housing moves into its retracted position.
