Grand Marquis custom marker light

[Dave84]

Well i have an extra marker light so i decided to see what it would be like without the orange reflector strip, so i carefuly pryed it off and under neeth looks good, so that would be a neet add on, full clear GM marker lights,,
ill get a pic of it up later...
Btw,, this is for '79 to '87's only im not sure about '88 and up.

Ooooo....That sounds cool.

hell yeah that would look slick on a black one even more!!!

[Dave84]

ya it dose look pretty sweet, i havent got one on my car yet but im going to pick up another marker light from work and do the same thing and swap um over...

[MrMarquis]

Can't wait to see the pics Dave!

I didn't know that could be done. Hmm, maybe I can sell these extras I have now...lol

Anyone tried replacing the regular incandescent bulb in their brake lights with a bunch of LEDS? Like the newer cars have?

[boXman]

Pete has 'em I do believe.

[85crownHPP]

Why yes I thought you knew this!!!!!!!
Not sure what you mean about the newer cars though. Most new cars Ive seen with LEDs have had unique LED lamp assemblies, not just an LED replacemenet bulb.

um...PICS!!!

[85crownHPP]

search Ebay for "1157 18 LED"

[interceptor1985]

Do they have one of those for the 88+ cars?

[85crownHPP]

oh yes.
just replace "1157" with "3157" in the search. They may even have a newer better type of bulb for the 3157... since those are in the newer cars mostly they seem to make those first.

[85MercPark]

I knew that, yes. What I meant, is to drill 100s of small holes and put 100s of small LEDS to simulate teh look of the new ones.

That would be work, yet cool..

Excellent idea.
