What can I get to replace the backup lights on a 1992 classic roadster cobra? Mine are missing

I think I have an extra set of light housings and the fiberglass patches to fit them

I'm going without them, I sent it to paint, I'll figure out some LEDs under somehow

Just put a flashlight over your shoulder. You don't need backup lights.

I used an LED light, 4"X1", and attached at the lower lip of the body.

This light is easy to install, gives off good light at night and also can be wired as a third brake light. Can barely see the thing when installed on the license plate bracket just below the plate light. Added a picture of it in my gallery.

Search Amazon for : iJDMTOY (1 Universal Fit White/Red 18-SMD LED Lamp Compatible with License Plate Lights, Backup Lights and Brake or Rear Fog Lights

Pretty much the same setup as I have, but mine is velcro'd on. Been there for years with no issues. It's only really to pass state safety inspection.
