Hello, I am an older retired mechanic and machinist, so I like to make things work. I have been looking into the Mabett side marker/turn signal lights. There are a few others out there prices are $60.00 and up. Well I decided to make my own with parts I had laying around my shop. I would guess I have less than $20 in these. What do you think?

I like it! I have a similar single LED (mounted exactly in the middle like yours). I then bought a lens from a kid off Etscy about a year ago. Nice lens and looks close to factory. I almost stuck with just the single LED as I liked that look also. Are yours turn signal and marker lights?

Looks great nice job I was looking at the ones you mentioned on Amazon since I plan to flat tow mine behind my MotorCoach are these plug and play or is there more to it regarding the installation where does the power come from?

Mine are just turn signal. That is all I wanted and they really light up nice at night.

Not plug and play. I had to splice into the turn signal wiring.

I spliced into the turn signal wiring only, not running lights.

Here is my 23. Used feniex cannons, it can be set for 3 modes, mine is mode 1 solid amber for turn, mode 2 is solid white for area light and mode 3 is strobe. They have 4 colors and any combo of the four can be assigned to any mode. Also can put these in your reverse lamp housing to act as reverse , strobe and brake

Had to look this up.
What does noice mean?
“Noice” is a slang term that means “nice” in an enthusiastic or humorous way. It's often pronounced with an exaggerated Australian accent.

Very nice Ken (Tech Tye) how about wiring does the light come with any? I like that you can keep the original insert with the OEM badge - thank you

I am interested in how you wired them into the backup light to show up white then amber and back to white.

How did you install them in the taillight?

Hope you have pictures of how you did this along with how you wired them up.
Found them on Amazon for $69 each.
