60/62 side marker lights, upgrade V2. (1 Viewer)

[sschruff]

Experienced a significant problem with the production of the Hummer lights I wanted to incorporate into my build. After a few days of scouring Google images, think I found something to replace the FUBAR'd Hummer lights. Ordered 2 sets (1 ea amber, 1 ea red) of Rigid Industries SR-L 3-wire spreader lights. They're due for delivery this coming Monday.

3-wire: Allows to function as a running light, blinker and spreader (1452 lumens each). As soon as we do the initial test fit, I'll post some pics of them mounted on the 60.

Was totally stoked yesterday when I got home - the Rigid SR-L's were delivered. Opened the overly large box, no packing material inside and one set damaged. Sending both back to be safe, will update when the new ones arrive.

Wow. Talk about pride in the packaging, especially for that price, damn. Where did you order from? Manufacturer or a certain high profile internet retailer?

I know, right! Aside from the unnecessary shipping $$$, might as well put a few rocks/ball bearings in the box and FUBAR it correctly. Ordering place would be the latter but 1st FUBAR with them to date. I'll keep all 9 fingers/toes crossed for the new shipment.

Are you planning on having them coordinate with your blinkers? I've considered doing that with my current LED marker lights (haven't gotten around to it), so if it's an easy thing with these that would be slick.

Yeah, absolutely and the primary reason I went for the SR-L 3-wire version. I'm not sure about easy, especially if you're still stock on wiring - way outside of my knowledge base. I'm doing a total rewire and utilizing a Infinity Box can bus system. I tend to make things very difficult or very expensive, more often than not, both. But, if this works out in the end, I figure it's better than not being able to get a set of NLA OEM markers, especially ones that have been sitting in aSaudi warehouse for 2 decades and the gaskets are nice and brittle=)

If I remember correctly, Daniel Stern sells a pigtail/harness that is plug & play to make your marker lights work with turn signals for OEM setup

I know he used to. Don't know if he still does but it's not overly difficult to make work. He's been my go-to with lighting questions for many years.

I think @ToyotaMatt can make an adapter harness ?

But I doubt there's gonna be too many peeps dropping $300 on side marker lights no matter how groovy...

I like my LED side markers just fine. Those are pretty, but more than I'd like to spend. But a near plug n' play method for making the side markers work with the blinkers would be pretty slick (could then easily be modified to accommodate aftermarket marker lights).

I think that depends on how you look at what you're getting. Yes, the lights are groovy but more importantly for me, functional. The 1400+ lumen side spreader especially with property work and even more so because I'm not looking to run a roof rack (a convenient place for spreader lights. I also think the $300 is a decent price given a) the way OEM parts reach NLA status and b) the short life expectancy that I've personally experienced with them.

5K in bumper setups, 30-60K in swaps, rims/tires, seats, etc., I guess the value depends on what you're trying to achieve and what's important to the individual. Where you feel $300 for a set of groovy lights is far fetched, some may think it's justified. Opinions are, after all, like. . .well, you know.

Hi, The problem I have on all my cruisers is that the Toyota housing crumbles quickly in Texas heat and sun. Mike
