Title: side maker light conversion and plug into the existing bulb socket
Post by: George Frudakis on June 07, 2020, 07:29:27 PM

I want to change my 10 amber and 2 red side maker lights to led. I have been told that you can take the lens out and purchase a new lens, which is led and just plug it into the existing socket of the old maker light bulb, they match the original OME product. Any idea where to get this product?

You can get the LEDs off Amazon - or just about any auto parts store. You probably have 194 bulbs in your current lights. If that is correct, take a look at these:

I have converted my front, rear, and side marker lights to these:

They come with the led lights in the cover. You just need to change the cover, and splice the wire to the existing ones. Easy job, inexpensive. Have had them since 2013,  no issues.
