Turn Signal Flasher with LED Bulbs

[nubuilder]

LMC had a set of corner lenses that I really wanted but they were $50 plus another $11 in shipping.

Oh, by halogen do you mean the standard incandescent? If so, that's what all my bulbs are; incandescent bulbs (standard, factory, stock, OEM).

LMC is a bit pricey on some of their stuff, but parts for my truck are hard to come by so they really have no compitition. & i do have the standard incandescent. I'm going to order a new set of H4's this weekend because my passenger side low beam is out. then i have to order a new set of markers because one of the lenses popped off. then i'm gettin my new tailights smoked. then it's ordering all LED's, both inside and outside

Looks real good. Hate to make suggestion, but stealth/chromed signal bulbs would look even better, nice chrome bulb look that lights up amber.

That could be an option. Do any local stores carry them? How much (I'd need 4 2357 bulbs, so 2 packs; and 2 194 bulbs, 1 pack)?

LMC sent me a pair when i bought my markers. i only went with amber because it looked good against the chrome housing and catches your eye

I know what you mean. I don't think I'll change the bulbs. I'd like to do something about the sockets, but I don't think paint will stick to them.

LMC is really nice. But you have to get an order together for over $1,000 to get free shipping and the oversized item fee waved. It is nice knowing that I can get almost everything on the truck in one place. They are the only place that carries FULL stainless door handles. Everyone else just sells the tape-on covers.


I should have mentioned it earlier, but I really like how your truck looks KillaF150. Of the Ford body styles, I think yours is my favorite. Yours is kind of like mine, fully stock outside with a few custom parts.

thanks man! I've put of hard work and money into it (you know how that is) It's a slow work in progress. id say out of all the f150's, i like 78-79 body style the best.

I didn't know they only kept that body for 2 years. Seems kind of short to me.

Ya, I've only had my truck for a year and a half and I already don't want to add all my accessories and stuff up. Oh well. I'm having fun and enjoying it. To me that's all that matters.



Does anyone know where I can get new stainless screws that hold on my parking lights?

I think they are an 8mm with 24 threads per (something) and like 25mm/1 inch long.
We have a regional store (Menards) that carries a lot of scews and bolts, but I can't find them.

If anyone knows where I can get them OR even what size they actually are, PLEASE let me know.

Looks awesome!

I do like the 80-86 body style too. i've always wanted to restore a '79 f150 though. they look amazing if you restore 'em right.
