LED Tail Lights

Post by Merlin68F100 »

Are there any good quality, bolt in replacement LED tail lights for the Bumps yet? Every now and then I do a search on the web but have come up empty so far. I am waiting ot upgrade the head lights until I can do the rear in LED.

None that I am aware of so far, but there is a member(can't recall who) that made his own using aftermarket LED trailer lights and they came out nice.

That is a sweet looking truck, but I am looking to get something off the shelf that is a direct replacement.

I have a set of those. They are in the glove compartment. I think they were $16 a copy.

A yard and a half for light bulbs! :eek: I would have to see these before I traded beer tickets for them. Not saying they are not worth it, just would like to try before I buy.
