Mr mopar Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I'm looking for These, I know the Lonestar has them, but dose anyone Resin cast them or Photo etch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincen47 Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I have searched high and low for those specific oval marker lights. My only suggestion is look at Czech Truck Model, they have very nice etched marker lights with colored lenses in red and amber. I've ordered several sets. They are the best modern US style marker light I've found, though they are not the sleek oval design, but more boxy. The lights come in multiple pieces, so you can leave off the outside guard, and they are still low profile w/ a chrome bezel. They also have several very nice interior and exterior photo etched detail sets for US trucks. czechtruckmodel.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Kucaba Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I'll have to do some research on this,but I believe I've seen a photo-etch door handle that with a dab of amber or red tinted epoxy might work. I think thay were Detail Master. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr mopar Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) I could go this route ,from A&N plus the glass lense ! Edited September 10, 2014 by Mr mopar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highway Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Doug, depending on the truck you are thinking of putting then on, the Millennium style lights may or may not be your best choice. If it is a newer rig like the Lonestar, then yes, because they are more or less factory equipment, but I think for an older truck the "double bubble" lights Cary posted may be a better choice. Don't get me wrong, the Millenniums look nice on older rigs too, but the double bubbles are also offered now in LED for the modern light brightness but the retro look.

Mr mopar Posted September 11, 2014 Author Share Posted September 11, 2014 What i need them for is a 2002 Freightliner Coronado . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highway Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Yeah, Doug, the Millennium would be the best choice then. I had a 2002 Classic back in the day that I leased from a joke of a company (otherwise known as worst mistake ever! ) and that was also when the pre LED Millenniums were just hitting the market and it came with the factory installed Millenniums. One other question, are you doing the lights as a factory installed set or driver installed? If it's driver installed, it may open your options for lighting choices, but factory installed kinda limits you to the Millenniums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highway Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Werner, England or Swift? My guess would be blue or red. The white didnt have classic freight shakers to lease Well, we will just see how closely we pay attention here!!! Of those three, there is one I never worked for and would give up my CDL before I did, one that I did work for and would never go back to again because of the lease, and one that I have worked for twice, the last being in 2012. Obviously if you guess the one I worked for in 2012, they would not be the one I had the lease at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did have a two tone blue Classic as well the first time I worked with Werner, but it was the red one I made the truck payment on. Three months of my driving career I really would wish I hadn't done, some of the stupid things we do when we were young! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many guys have been burned by England. Look at it this way though, lesson learned and now you have a better job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
