Who has done this and where did you find them? I can adapt the running lights with just about anything. But the front and back lights are strange, not common? Any other things eagle lovers upgraded? |

I did it,on the back, I was totaly disapointed in the way things were,only one light on each side was turn signal,I bought off of ebay,led lights that were cast in a strip & were six inches long & now,when I turn on my turn signal ALL red lights blink,I glued these strips on the inside red lens,they are about one inch wide & six inches long,also put strobe lights in the back-up light,.if you count each led as a bulb, I have 186 bulbs on the back of the Eagle, & people pay attention when I give a turn signal, & they clear away when I start backing up.
got to ebay motors,then go to l.e.d. lights. |

I replaced the single element bulb sockets with double element sockets and then re-wired as appropriate. I also did the same for the front turn signal lights and made them clearance as well as turn.
Probably the biggest improvement I made was lining the light fixture interiors with bright shiny aluminum tape like is generally used by air conditioning techs.
Unbelievable the difference this made in the brightness of the lights. I also replaced all the lens covers which also significantly helped in the overall appearance of the coach.

Great idea on the shiny aluminum tape. I tried it yesterday on my Eagle 10 and it worked great. I also clear coated the lenses. It was a big difference. |
