So I have been seeing all of these LED conversions for our trucks, which makes a lot of sense. What I don’t understand is why they are so expensive. I did a little research and came up with a few components that were too cheap not to try out. Here is what I came up with: I first researched LEDs and came up with these from Lightobject. $12.45 all in Attachment 920442 I then went to Radio Shack and bought terminal and bus strips. $5.54 Attachment 920443 Attachment 920445 So I took a new light I got from Brothers (nice piece) and started drilling.

After drying overnight, I wired up the terminal strip
Attachment 920447 Attachment 920448 and BANG! Attachment 920449 Attachment 920450 This light is really bright! I’ll take it over the $129.99 LED conversion being sold by an aforementioned vendor. |

These LEDs have a built in current limiter so you just run a brake line to the positive, find a ground and they act as a third brake light. I did not touch the cargo light components, so this is a cheap way to have one fixture provide both a cargo lamp and a third brake light.
