English term or phrase: come into their own

The whole text is talking about automotive lighting system. I think it would be better if I give you the adjacent sentences in the context:

"Design is also an increasingly important factor. This is where LEDs truly come into their own, as they allow a whole new approach to vehicle design, enabling designers to create brand-specific styles. A look at the role that LED technology plays within automotive lighting systems shows great promise. "

Please note that the translation is fluent and easy to read, and in a style that would be more culturally acceptable and appealing to Chinese readers.

Thank you so much! I appreciate your time!
