    Default LED Docking Light Option

    Here's a LED light that can replace the factory halogen sealed beam lights. FWIW, Prevost also sells a LED light, it's just not as bright.

    Gil what are guys using for upgrading the upper marker lights on our older XLs. Ive got a 96 xl. Also are your xl taillights still available. I see a set for sale on ebay? Thanks in advance for any help you can give on my options. Want to update to LED all around.

    Yes, I should have a set of lights ready in a week or so. Thanks for asking.

    Thanks Gil. We are in Texas for the winter and with the virus we may have to head up to Canada a little early this year. Do you have a set ready to ship or do they have to be built. Could look at getting them sent to a border location as shipping into canada can be a little pricey. Question. What is the LED replacement for the Center taillight on the coach? Appreciate the help.

    I'll have a set ready by Monday.

    I recommend and have been selling this new Whelen light with bezel. It's a long lead item. You might consider the more available 70BTT with bezel.

    So I have to say is get Gils taillight conversion kit. It’s awesome and it gives the bus an upgraded look. It’s also a well made piece of kit - I would say it’s higher quality than OEM.

    Gil I tried installing the Docking lights you suggest on my 96 XL and they dont fit the Bracket. I am also not sure of the depth. I know I will need to cut off the bracket on the back. Attaching a couple pics so you can see if it is a different bucket then yours on the H3.

    Craig,

    Thanks for sharing! I'm curious if they won't still mount, but with the bezel protruding maybe an extra 1/16".

    Will give it another look. Was a little short on time and just took it off at the end of the day. I think I could mill out the bezel a little bit to get it in as an option too. Did you cut the bracket off the back on yours or did you have room with it on? Your video didnt show any cutting.

    I didn't do a thing. Pulled one out and installed the other.
