Custom tail light setup for steel tray????

Postby Jay_3844 on Tue, 01 Nov 2011 4:52 +0000

Hi All,
Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction. You know how you see the custom LED tailights setup on cab chasis where the lights are moulded into the frame work, just under the tray, can anyone point me in the right direction on where to get something like that done? And if anyone has got the same sort of deal on their Lux, any pics would be good, just to get some ideas and designs etc etc.

Cheers in advance guys

From Traralgon mate.

Hey mate sorry about the bad quality but you get the idea. Mine were just the standard lights you see on most traybacks but just got them filled in at the local welders.

I know the ones you mean mate, can't find a pic though.

Any local fabrication place will do it for you, just get a quote or two first. There are plenty up your area, plenty of 4x4's to get ideas off to!

Are these the ones you mean mate? Hopefully these links work :?
Legally they are supposed to be fitted with a reflector as they don't have reflectors built into them

On the internet you can be anything you want. It is strange that so many people choose to be stupid!

Hey all,

Does anyone know where to get lights like these. I have bought some off ebay but they are absolute rubbish. Looking for something with a bit more quality. Cheers

I bought a set off eBay (pretty sure it was an eBay store). Came in proper packaging with correct size hole saw too. Had them for years and they are still brilliant.
Maybe the ones you bought were a cheap knock off.
I’ll try and dig through my history to find out where they were from.

I had a look and can’t find them. It goes way back to 2017 and they still aren’t there. I’d say I purchased them in 2016 and had them since.
I purposely left them in my “watched items” list but they aren’t there either. Even a search I couldn’t find.
I’ll keep trying for you mate, mine are identical to those in your photo

I would just check say Narva it hella website atleast they are a name brand and then find a retailer. Buy a decent brand get something that will be adr compliant also.
