( LED Turn signals for the front of the grill.
These would replace the lens that is on there now. There would be modifications required to make these fit and some wiring splicing to get everything functioning properly. They'd come in amber and have the ability to be clear or dark tinted when off, and amber when on. Running lights and turn signals would be retained. )

I'd be interested. I made a similar turn signal as you described. Not LED tho. I want to see what you have!

For now the side markers will be the only production item that will be available.

The front turn signals did not work out as I had expected. There was a lot of miscommunication between myself and my manufacturer.

The brake lights have some potential however putting in an LED product of any kind behind the stock defused lens really disperses and diminishes light output.

I haven't given up hope though. I'm engaging with another manufacturer to see if we can produce turn signals and taillights that meet the exact dimensions of the stock units. I'm not putting a lot of faith in this is as I would imagine the tooling costs to be too expensive.

I'll continue to update the thread if we find anything of interest.

Can you post up some better pictures and pricing? I'm interested, but the pics on your truck are hard to see detail.

Count me as interested for the front turn signals. Those and the license plate lamp are the only exterior lights on my Bronco that are still incandescent. Everything else is LED now, including the headlights. But the front turn signals are elusive. I've only found one guy who sells an LED turn signal assembly already. So it would be between yours and his when I'm ready to buy, if yours is ready yet.

We have been selling LED replacement bulb kit for several years. Every bulb except the the Lic. plate light, no body makes it. We use a resister to give enough load for the turn signals to work but they make a digital flasher also.

Sure. Here are some larger photos. If they are still unclear I can take better pics with a real camera.

Thanks Chuck. I've seen those and may end up going with them. I was kind of holding out for an LED array rather than a replacement bulb. Like the one I linked to above. That's why I was interested to see what Heus33 was coming up with. We'll see whenever I get around to that, its not real high on the list at the moment LOL...

There are a number of diff LEDsl diff angles and brightness some are dim some are bright some can be seen at sharp angles some not the LEDs hues33 is using are much brighter than the stock bulbs and look nice.
