Replacement lights for 2019 and completed recall

I have been doing a lot of research for good looking plug and play lights and I may have found them. I want to thank Magic Carpet, Jeanne and Rick White for sharing ideas and links with me which I will post.

These are the best lights I have found so far that are turn and marker 3 wire lights. They are flush mount 6" X 2.8" and can be mounted with or without the bezel. The bullet connectors I have used plugging into the Spartan factory plug and they seems to seal fine. I used liquid electrical tape around the connection for a double seal.
These lights come in different sets, see the bottom of the linked pages.

Rick White, of hdgoldie shared this link which are a Peterbuilt style 3 wire lights.

To do factory wiring, Jeanne, Magic carpet has researched her tail off and was kind enough to share these links for the plug kit and tool.

I hope others will post lights they have found that others may like. I am sorry I do not have a coach yet to do a photo post of the mod, hopefully someone else can post that.

None of these lights are reflective, but they are safe marker/turn signals. Looks like the light manufactures don't care if they are reflective because they do not make them that I can find.

If you look at pretty much any truck you'll see yards of reflective stick-on tape. That's why no one makes reflective signals. It looks fine on a trailer, not so good on a coach.





Chuck, are these lights rated? I can't read what's on them. If I'm going the light and reflector route, I need to know that the lights are legal.

The lights I posted are rated to light and flash It is the safety factor I am looking for. If others are looking for ratings numbers, please post what you find that will work in a 3 wire light, that can be made to plug and play and fit nicely on our MH's.

Personally, all I am concerned with is turn signals on the side, and maker lights.
Dusty56 did the turn signal mod back in 2014 for the Classics, which many of us copied. I don't ever recall rating numbers coming up for personal safety.

Here is the manufacture of the lights, maybe rating numbers can be found there.

Why not just use the ones Entegra used on the 2016-17 coaches.

We can't find them in the 3 wire configuration.

So far I have not found them in 3 wire, I hope someone can find a source for them.

Why not call Entegra parts for a part number and perform a search? Better yet, while you’ve got them on the phone, ask them who they source them from.

How can one tell if these are bright enough to be seen in full sunlight?

Someone buys a small quantity and bench tests them, I fear.

Here is a light the Richard, Gasman 2 posted, it is reflective (looks like) but no listing for purchase. https://heavydutylighting.com/produc...s?q=HD%2060010
It is plainer than I am looking for, but might work perfect for others.

Marc, the question I have is how bright can the new 2 LED factory lights now being installed are? Which would be brighter 2 LED's or 35? It would be nice to have a side by side test......anyone?

I saw Grower 15 newly installed Entegra 2 LED lights and I was not impressed, others may love them.

Chuck

There are chrome trim bezels for the white backup and red stop lights and only no bezel shown for the side marker/turn signal lights. They look like the amber are made for a bezel... hopefully a call to the company will confirm they have them for the 3 wire amber.

Look at all 5 pictures on the left side of the ad. Click on one to select, put your mouse pointer on the one to enlarge. No need to always call companies.

You are talking about the teardrop lights.... I am talking about the rectangular lights from Heavy Duty Truck or something like that which have no trim bezels showing.

These: https://heavydutylighting.com/produc...s?q=HD%2060010

Not sure if the new DOCK lights are teardrop also.... if not, then I am probably more inclined to use rectangular.
