Stepside Tail Lights

Just wondering if anyone has ever done this...I need a new set of tail lights for my 81 stepper...Well I was at wally world last night, and saw a set of trailer lights that are impecabbly close to the factory lights (even have the one reverse light)...well these are LED lights, AND are water proof since they're made to go on a boat trailer I assume...only thing is I'd probably have to drill a couple of new mounting holes on the brackets, because it's not the same bolt pattern, but no biggie.

They're $50 bucks and have all the wiring and what not with them....what do y'all think? Is it worth it? They're guaranteed to last like 10,000 hours or so? (that number could be wrong, it's definately not less, but could be more lol)

I haven't done it but it sounds like a good idea to me.

Re: Stepside Tail Lights

I know the exact lights you're talking about because when I saw them I thought "hey these might be good to use on a step side" lol. I cant foresee any problem using them, pick up a set and let us know how it works out.
