fleetside turn signal and backup light ideas?

I am looking for some ideas for reverse and turn signal lighting for my 59 fleetside. I plan on making a roll pan and wanted to see if some of you had some pictures to share. thanks in advance.

Re: fleetside turn signal and backup light ideas?

Stock Fleetside taillight and turn signals here. The factory backup light option mounted below the tail light, was similar to 55-57 front turn signals with a flatted lense. I have seen strip leds in the recess below the tailgate hinge used to supplement the stock tail light, you would wire them separately to work as turn signals too. If you look hard enough might even find a sequencial controller like 67 Cougars had. I am looking for a 3" tractor type lite to mount on the bumper step next to the license plate that will accept a small aircraft landing light lamp. I got some led's off of ebay but they light level was to low.
