I am looking for a backup light to replace the "ultra " modern led fixture the previous owner installed on my 1941 AK. I would like a 12 volt led with a mountable housing that looks vintage. Any suggestions?

If I can't find a fixture they would work.

Thanks

kevinski We had an 82 Buick once she said it had headlights on the back in reverse. You could see well back there,better than backing into something.

The old tractor lights is a good idea. The only problem is all of mine have been "rode hard & put away wet".

If your truck has the rectangle taillights you can probably use the 37-38 car backup light. It uses an incandescent bulb but that can be replaced by an LED if you wish. The link below shows it with the light housing above but it actually mounts below the taillight. I'll post a photo of the one on my 38.

They're taking names for when they're available again. Give them a call. Also The Filling Station.
