    Guess I got confused. I meant to ask about the body mounted back up lights. Not the LP lights. Any one found a good replacement? Possibly LED?

    Contacted DC truck parts. It looks like they have the BU lenses and gaskets, but have not returned my call yet. Has anyone done business with them? Also has anyone done a complete replacement of the body mounted BU lights with an LED. Trying to get the van completed for the lost in the 50's parade here in Sandpoint in three weeks.

    Wouldn't a A-100 look some-what "futuristic" at a '50's show? Laughing
    Good luck with your project, I hope you get it ready in time!! JP

    I used the 2" with grommet, not from the site listed but probably the same light. Fit great and I like the look. http://vintage-vans.smugmug.com/Other/Walkers68/11594384_P9W6RK#!i=881166396&k=onETw&lb=1&s=A

    I hope the link works, the pic is from when I was trying to decide on color.
