I have searched, but cannot find it anywhere. Clearance Light replacement LED

I have a 98 4200 and would like to change the clearance lights to LED. They are 4.5x1.75 inches rectangle. I have searched for over 2 hours and am not finding the same light anywhere, even with the standard bulb.

Tried internet search, tried Barry's site, tried a dozed LED light dealers over the net, no luck. The only numbers in the lens are AP2-80 and what appears to be a date on the bottom. Did not want to pull out to look for any ID #'s.

So, I figured someone here has changed them out and may have some #'s for me.

Thanks All,
You have always been there for me.

Yes, those are what I bought for my 90 when I had the full body paint done. But the 98 has different lights. Screw on/low profile lights.

Thanks, but these are different.

FYI AP2-80 sounds like a SAE (old name Society of Automobile Engineers) standard number  Full # would be SAE AP2-80  this is not the model number just shows it complies with the standard.

Here is a link to Truck-Lite's catalog they make a lot of the lights around.  It has a cross reference to other manufactures.

Dunno if it helps.

Jeff, Go to any large truck parts dealer in your area.  They will all kinds of LED's and they will also have paper and online catalogs that you can look thru.

Call Truck Parts East in Charlottsville, The old owner was a FT owner and the firm still services a lot of FT repair stuff. If you call you need to make sure the rear lights are the kind that have the angle reflector. The front lights are fine regular but the rear are on the crown and you need to have the angle to be able to be seen.

John S is correct, Truck Parts East is the place to get the LED lights.  I went there, told them I needed the same LED lights that the ex-owner had on his Foretravel, the counter man went in back, returned with a box of exactly what I wanted.  Real simple, maybe too simple, eh.

For the side mounted turn signal LED light, I had Xtreme install 4 of them when I had the FBP job.  Feel having plenty of turn signal lights are a good idea, eliminates the "I did not see him" issue.

But those aren't LEDs.  The LED number is Part #: 2673 which matches my Grotes, and 18081R  which matches the 18300 from Trucklite.  But the Trucklite have a lifetime warranty, which the Grote doesn't.  But the Trucklites are pricy.  I can get a discount straight from the TruckLite factory, but got the Grote because of the savings.
