Your best bet would be to find a decent truck spare part place.There are a few different styles you can get.
I got the flat style with all 3 bar type lights and they set me back around the $130 each.Can't quite remember the exact price.
Hope this helps.

Hella ones at the 4wd show were $194 EACH Thats 4 (2 brake/tail, and 2 blinker) you need, so $800 in lights.

Good thread on them here with a URL to cheap ones.

I went thru this, I ended up with $8.90 Narva from Supercheap ones, LED's look the shit but not at the price they want. Also if you smash em you have to replace the whole thing.. according to one trailer bloke at 4wd show.. could be bollox.

Check out ebay, got my hella triple combos for about 250 for a pair, not too bad, look damn sweet, just need a custom bare to mount them in.

Shop price on these was around $225 each last time i checked.

I can get in any sort of Leds and or lights. They come with a ten year warranty. I have just ordered some for my truck. I got the single round ones as if I crack it it wont cost as much to replace. I will let you know when they arrive so you can come and check them out. As for price I am not sure until I get the invoice. But there would is a lot to choose from. I can also get the sealed lights. By the way they dont supply the clear ones in Leds.

They should fit a trailor or I could source some that did fit exactly. As soon as they are in I will take some measurements and photos for you. Cheers. Cris.

These look good for the price

I like how they are clear until activated. Would they be legal ?

My rig has no rice :lol:

But these would save mounting a separate indicator and brake light.

But the price is what impressed me. I dont like spending heaps on stuff I know is going to get hit :cry:

If you have ever had a boat trailer you would know that completly sealed lights will save you money - salt gets everywhere.
Does not matter how much vaso, grease, lanonlin you use - they will stop working eventually...

LEDs are the answer...

I got the led,s in today. They are round. They are almost as flat as a pancake and about 10.7mm wide. They are going to look awsome on the truck. I just have to keep them out of the way from objects cause they are pretty exie. I would have noy picked anything else but. Bonus thing about them is that they come with a 10 year warranty. :cool:

400mm in from the end of the tray. If that is the case :armsup: . :lol:
As you can see the truck was not finished so I could not make it up to short course.
