    Smile 2nd pair LED brake lights

    Here are the pictures of the stock reflector to LED brake light conversion I did some time ago.



    Also all the parts are found on ebay very easily you will just need three items per side (light)
    -LED light http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Maxxi...2394QQtcZphoto
    -Rubber mounting grommet http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2-Bla...3398QQtcZphoto
    -Wiring harness http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2-Wir...3642QQtcZphoto

    This is very easy to do the stock reflectors do have a bolt and nut holding them on but after that and a 2-1/2" hole drill it is as easy as connecting two wires to the original brake light lines.

    Wow they look great. I'm gonna order me a set tonight. How much was the combined shipping? Nowadays I only use ebay sparingly cause most of the sellers try to rip you on shipping costs but this might be too good to pass up.

    EDIT: Maybe we could try a group buy on this. He has all this stuff in bulk.

    Excellent find, I had been looking at rear fogs, but none fit the space in the bumper. I ordered mine today.

    I think if I use a diode, and hook the brake to one side, and turn signal to the other I can get this to flash for turn without backfeeding voltage to the brake lights.

    Neat mod! Don't sweat the group buy, just go to your local tractor-trailer supply place and they'll have all this stuff available for the same price and often less. Commercial truck parts like lighting are amazingly inexpensive. I just bought a bunch of these 2" Maxxima LED assemblies for a 42' flatbed I just got and they were about $5 each from a local place, so all I paid was tax.

    Don't get eBay blind, always check locally before buying!

    If ya gotta buy online, check this place out: http://www.buytruckstuff.com/

    Looks nice LittleBeast I've often thought of installing Clear led's there to aid while in Reverse. I have a night vision camera that does put out a nice glow but an extra blanket of light would be nice...

    Icekold, I went back and found the order on paypal and it was only as follows:
    Subtotal: $19.96 USD
    Shipping & Handling
    (includes any seller handling fees): $4.55 USD
    Shipping Insurance : --

    Total: $24.51 USD
    but Joe Black is right this should all be avaliable locally for about the same price, I just didn't want to try to find a place in Houston.

    Hotsauce, if you get that blinker mod to work with this let me know I would be interested in seeing how that would look.

    VCrossfan, nice idea I think these items would work perfectly for what you are thinking about:

    2" white led http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Super...1351QQtcZphoto

    2" white led back up kit http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-W...1444QQtcZphoto although you will not need the chrome plastic surrounds on this particular kit.
