Just thought I'd include a picture of the LED tail lights I installed. I highly recommend these verses the original lamp units for classics like mine.
Please don't pick on my tire cover, I didn't realize I had it was too high on the tire until I looked at the pictures.
I just got the center bumper reinforced and re-chromed and also reinforced and repainted the spare tire mount. I haven't driven with a spare since we got the coach, the bumper was broken down the middle and the mount was broken too. Finally peace of mind to have a spare!!!
This is the old lamp. A previous owner had installed brighter bulbs for obvious reasons and the predictable results are visible.

Anyone know where to get replacement brake lights? Mine is a 1996, and has the rectangular sealed units, that you can not replace the bulb, so you must buy a new one! But I'm tempted to cut it open and replace it, then glue it back!

I tried to search that seller, but you can not do that on Ebay for some reason. I found them on a website called Truck-lite.com
But they show 3 different ones. Not sure which one to get. Thanks Richard.

For anyone trying to find a seller on Ebay:
Up by Search on the Ebay site is Advanced, click on that, then scroll to the bottom of the page and you will see Sellers. Type in the name of the seller and click on Search and scroll down to Dialight 80. Looks like at the moment the amber turn signals and the clearance lights is all he has listed but if you contact him he may have other items in stock that are not listed.

Mine is air activated. My switch is on a small manifold right at the brake pedalair valve
