Or you can make your own if you are good like that. I was just messin' around and put 6 led's in stock X body. I just thought I would see how it looked. Here are a few pix. I am working on a set for my El Camino body with brake lights in it. Also I am making a mini light bar for another truck body that I have yet to buy.LOL.

Here is a pic of the wiring from the battery pack to the switch and lights. I got the battery pack from a small led flashlite that I had with broke bulbs in it. I also used the switch from it to. I got the LED's at radioshack pretty cheap. I mounted the switch to the center of the windshield and zip tied the battery pack to it as well. It works pretty damn good. At night it lights the way with ease.
