Me personally i was going to try and pick up those LED trailer lights from a local pepboys and "fab them up" in the fox housing.. That or something like this:

3 X 5 Rectangular Red LED Stop,Tail& Turn light - led truck lights, led trailer lights, led boat trailer lights, trailer lights

View attachment 306693

or something similar and go from there.. I gotta get the project running, driveable, and inspected before i start this project though

That's exactly what I was thinkin' of doing at one point with those LED trailer lights they sell at Harbor Freight. I think they're less than $25 a pair, IIRC, so if it doesn't require you to mutilate the lens housing to make 'em fit, it'd be worth it.

I bought new clear license plate lenses from 50Resto and put the appropriate LED's from SuperBrightLED's in there and I freakin' love em. They make the license plate light look awesome.





And yes...I have noticed that they're different colors. SuperBright has "Cool White" and "Warm White" and I ordered 2 "Cool White" LED's and I think I got one of each.

I've also got LED's in my cornering lamps out front (not that you asked) heh

LOL. That's what snow days are for. When you are inside because it's too damn cold to work on your car...you buy little things like these and plan them
