Rear Clearance lights

Anyone know where I can get the OEM rear clearance lights for an 87-96 F-350 dually? The ones (3) that go under the tailgate between the bumper and tailgate? Thanks

Check with Napa, or a similar store. Truck-lite Model 15. I put one on my F-250 a few years ago. It is a direct replacement for the Ford. Comes with a harness. The holes line up and everything! It even is available with LED lights, if you like.

This is cool! Thanks! I got a generic 3-light bar and tried to put it on my F350 but it interfered with the tailgate. I checked at the dealer and you wouldn't believe the price they want for it! I'm checking for that Napa site now!

I could not find it on-line. I made an inquiry and they e-mailed me back saying that it might be available at the store?

Yeah, mine was on the shelf at Napa. Walked in, they looked it up in the catalog, got it off the shelf, paid, and I was on my way. It's been a few years, so I can't remember what I paid for it. But I can tell you it was worth it. It still looks new, haven't burned out a bulb yet. Knock on wood! You get what you pay for. I set aside most of my lunch money every week so I can buy parts like this. Hopefully, it'll be on the shelf at your local Napa, too! Good Luck!

Yeah I couldn't find anything on the Napa website either . If the light doesn't plug in, it shouldn't be a big deal to wire it in, it's only one + wire and you can hook it to the tail lamp or liscense plate light wire. I just want the lights to physically fit between the bed and the tailgate with the tailgate down...

Hey look, this is my 100th post!!!!!!!

Me thinks the last time I saw them, they were around $30 for the LEDs. If you just want the standard light, like the Ford's have. I'd guess in the $20-$25 range. These are the same ones on the Ford duallys ('87-'96). So, they will fit w/o any sort of clearence issues. The wire harness I mentioned loops the 3 lamps together only. All you have to do is hook one wire up. I spliced into the license plate lamps wire. Make sure you cover all your connections with NYK grease (get at Napa). It'll help prevent corrossion. If you want to go the extra mile like I did, pick up some heat shrink tube (also at Napa). Gives connections extra protection and makes the whole job look professional. Bolting it on, wiring it all up, shrinking the tube only took a 1/2 hour including clean-up. If you want, I can run over to Napa in the morning (only 4 blocks away) and find out the exact price. Anthing else? Let me know.


Good Luck!

Chris
