Well i finally got to get my red LEDs for the military Tailights for the M416. The original lights were regular blackout type lights. I pulled the lens off and discarded the blackout part and reassembled them. And then used Red LED bliung lights from the auto store. They are in your ricer section. I wa going to use Red regular bulbs, but i couldn't find 4 of them, and i got to thinking if the regular bulb would be bright enough for use with the smaller slits of the blackout cover plate. So here are the pics. I do believe they will be plenty light, just have to get the wires and mount them on the trailer... and actually wire my jeep up for them.

Which slit do you guys think should be the turn signal/brakes and which for th erunning lights. I am not sure what they did stock.
