Can just the side marker LED light bubls be replaced? Looking at CAT BASE, and only see Prevost part 930340, which is the complete side marker assembly.

Anyone know before I call Prevost tomorrow?

Thanks,
Ray

I just upgraded mine from the old style to the ones with LED's on the side. They are a one piece sealed unit. Cost 22.69 from Prevost. A bit pricey, they are less money at a truck parts house if you can find them. I had trouble locating them so just gave up and bought them from Prevost Fort Worth when I was there getting shocks put on.

Ray, I replaced all of my side marker lamps with the new LED units. These REPLACE your existing orange / red lens covers. ( JDUB did it first, then Loc, then me, Patrick next, Now Tag your it ) ( Patrick saw them at the Fat Beagle Bash, several weeks ago... ) Guess he liked them too !

It was the single best upgrade I have done to my bus. Your bus now stands out more and can be properly seen, as you drive down the highway and there is NO MISTAKE that you are changing lanes, when these puppies are flashing. You can see them flashing from behind the bus as well as when you are along side.

The part numbers are as follows:

Amber Side Marker LED Lights (18) 930401 $ 20.68 12volt
Grote # 47163 (6) Led Lights $25.99 each
Red Side Marker LED Lights ( 2 ) 930400 $ 26.26
Grote # 47162 Red (6) Led Lights $25.99 each
Amber Clearance Marker Lamps (7) 930337 $19.78
Red Clearance Marker Lamps (7) 930334 $20.36
Seal Lamp Black 930344
Nut Well Screw Guides ( ? ) 502774

You will normally need some extra Nut well screw guides to refasten the lens to the bus.

Hope this helps.

That count from Gary is for those buses that are lit-up like Christmas trees. I'm not so lucky as mine's just a light deficient Country Coach. However, on the flipside I didn't have to shell out $42,000.00 to upgrade my side markers

Incandescent bulbs forever.......the way nature intended for buses to be lit.

Patrick I have told you a Million Times to quit exagerating.. It only cost me half that to redo my lights. :p

Just re-did mine with the led and chrome housings from POG sponsor IBP. Look very nice compared to the old Prevost incandescants with the white plastic base. The light itself is a sealed unit and the lens separate. The chrome housing adds that extra bit of bling bling....and cha ching to the cost.

Thanks guys. Mine already is the two LED variant, and one unit is out. Verified this morning that it is a sealed unit. Before I spend $20+, I guess I'm going to get in with a volt meter, and make sure the problem isn't elsewhere.

I hope you guys realize it was LEDs that led to the original Bling contest that the King won in Santa Fe. Roger will forever be the King of bling, but those of you that are overcompensating by spending huindreds on lights for your coach may want to resurrect another bling contest.

I have to tell you that in order to win you have to go far beyond having a few fancy lights. Maybe Mango will post pictures of the hundreds of LEDs he and Jerry applied to Jerry's coach. For what it's worth, the King had lights beneath his coach, shiny stainess steel or chrome in his engine compartment, a disco ball, an LED belt buckle, a moving message LED license plate frame, and he schmoozed the 86 year old contest judge.
