where can I find 1 ton tailgate lights
I have a tailgate that already has the holes drilled but somebody scarfed the lights. So even if I didn't like them I'd need to add the five clearance/marker lights. I added them on both my 79 and 81 3/4 tons just because I think they look cool. I just bought the cheap 5 light kit from JCW or AutoZOne or someplace, and I didn't like them. The chrome housing is incorrect, which doesn't bother me, but what I found is they don't light up very red because of thin cheesy lens and white plastic base. They light up almost pink. 2nd set I actually cut them all open (sealed) just so I could paint the inside of the lens red, that's how much it bothered me.
So I can't find a set of good lights that belong there, LMC doesn't show them, all the trailer co. websites sell just the lights usually. It's getting hard to find anything that isn't LED now too. Not interested in LED because they won't match the rest of the truck. I actually tried changing my 97 over to all LEDs, spent a bunch of money and still wasn't happy with the results, so I gave up.
So anyway, does anyone know where I could source a set of the correct rectangular tailgate marker light kits?
