Well I may not be crazy but I got screwed. I couldn't find side mounted sockets so I stopped by a shop in town. They restore and make street racers. (Rolling my eyes) I explained that I had about $30 for this project. My red reflectors were cracked and new LEDs from Chuck are around $60. The shop owner told me no problem. ..then took a week to cut up the backing plate and rig up some wierd LED thing and had the nerve to charge me $80...OMGOSH - really. He argued when I told him that I could not afford that so he kept my lights....
Darn people. No wonder I have trust issues. ....anyway.
Because the VintageRV parts website had replacements but in the end would have been $130 including the
license plate bracket....I ordered new ones from Chuck that should be here on Monday.
Darn disappointing - but a good safe solution that still fits my budget. (I will update other posts about silicone and
leaks soon)
