  Who has changed over to LED.  Just ordered a set made by Rampage.  My old drivers side was looking bad must have backed into something cause the side marker was gone.  Also starting to have problems with Corrosion turn signals work part of the time.  Mostly work when I'm not moving and just checking to see if they work.  But on the road Not so much.

  Hope these have better light.

Got them in will try to put them on tonight and take Pictures.  But so far am Impressed with the Housings Metal where the stock one is plastic and part of the reason I'm changing mine cause the housing is cracked and broken.

i like them just not the chrome part, painted black would look nice but that's just a matter of personal preference. so is the chromed part of the lens also metal or just the housing.

Doesn't look like any of it is metal.  That's a stock housing that's been 'chromed' with a fancy lens.

  All metal and its not the same housing as I'm replacing.  But will not do it today.  The rain is making up for lost time.

if you added them on top of the housing you should seal the bolt/bracket to the housing otherwise water will make it in there.

Mounted to the side, wires barely fit in the grommets I used so that is a tight fit and the mounting bolt hole should not be a Problem.  Really like the gasket this uses for the lens cover.   Changed mine mostly cause their was moss starting to grow in the old housing.
