Perfect for my 1929 Pickup
The cast aluminum housing is great. Even the lense ring is cast. All one piece so weather wont get to it. I plan to use rubber and silicone to seal the mounting bracket and lense ring. I'll be using these as rear park-turn-brake with LED bulbs.
I understand that the housing is for custom installation. That said, be prepared to completely build these lights inside and out. I'm using the heavy brass brackets that are recommended. They will also need fitting as the radius of the the curve isn't quite the same as the side of the lamp. I will powder coat the brackets but haven't decided on powder coating the lamps yet. The lamps are polished but not show polished. And there are a few bumps n scratches here n there. Either way, polished or powder coated, they will be fine when I'm done with them.
I would've liked to see a better way to secure the lense than just glueing it to the ring. I also would've liked to see at least one indexing nub on the lense ring instead of relying on one screw and friction to hold it in place. I can see a problem later on with one stainless screw torquing into a threaded aluminum housing to hold it all together. I may install a small roll pin opposite the screw to maintain the rings position without having to crank down on the screw. Those two things are the reason for only four stars.
So after all of that, Yes I'm very happy with these lamps and they will look great on my little hot rod truck. I can see how they would be great on front, rear or cowl. Just remember they are not plug n play. You will have to make them work for your application. But if you're building a hot rod this will just be another project on the list of things to do to finish.
