Anyone try this?

so i was just out in the garage putting my new black corner lights in and i was thinking (which can be a bad thing).. i want to put lighted corner lights in the top (beside the head light) in place of the reflector.. i know there is some cutting and drilling involved but i know its not impossible.. anyone else try this??? if so can you please post a pic??

I've heard of it being done, nothing more than drilling a hole in the top "reflectors" and splicing some wires into a new bulb socket IIRC.

Excuse me for being stupid but I was thinking the same thing last night as I was putting my grill back on. Will the bottom lenses not work for the top? Could you just buy 2 sets of the bottoms?

 

[tj98gmc]

right,, the holes are spaced apart differently for the lighted ones,, but i dont see why you couldnt make it work... i figured im not the first person to think of it...

 

[tj98gmc]

what i mean is (i did this quickly so please dont mind),the measerment between prongs "A" is different from prongs "B",, but that is only drilling/cutting a small amout to make them work...

Just drill a hole and get the dremel out to make a socket, then get OE pigtails and splice them in.

There ya go!
There's a thread here called 'Upper corner mod'.
I'd explain, in detail, but just got back from working on a bud's Hot-Rod. A couple or six ta'killia's, & 'where the hell are my glasses', is not helping me see this keyboard!

Whew, after digging for a while I finally found the original thread.

Cool mod.

I knew it had been done at some point by someone, just wasn't sure if you could use the bottom one's for the top. Thanks for the link.
