Default Need Help With Cab Lights

I am trying to find some cab lights ( also known as clearance lights ) for the roof of my 1993 F150. I would prefer OEM, but they are going to cost about $120 after taxes, and I can't make myself spend $120 for lights.

Are there any cheap similar to OEM cab lights that you guys know about? (( Please don't refer me to the junkyard, I've tried several :P ))

Thanks!

Sadly you get what you pay for. However you can make it awesome. http://www.realtruck.com/plasmaglow-...ed-cab-lights/

I've tried cheap ones at Harbor freight on a friends truck and it 1) looks bad with a white base. 2) not really that bright. 3) they burned out easy (6 Mos) and 4) the wiring is cheap and really light for being lights.

I'll probably just keep my eyes open at the junkyard for OEM ones, I didn't think about checking for newer super-duty cab lights when I was there. If not, I'll try out the ones you linked, thanks!

No problem! I personally really liked early Super Duty Cab lights on my friends 95.

I actually thought about a lund visor before reading your post, I've already been looking for one so there is no real sense in getting cab lights. I found a lighted Lund visor on Craigslist for $30.00 and another for $50.00, going to ****** up whichever one is closer, maybe even both and sell one for profit since they are worth way more than $30.00

Let me know if you buy both, I'd love to take the extra one off your hands!
