Cheap 12 volt lights

I think the rv lights you buy at the rv store or on ebay are to expensive so i went to the thrift store and picked up a couple 120 volt lights for 50 cents and gutted them and went to my local auto part store and picked up some taillight sockets and put them in the 120 volt fixtures and now i have 12volt lights costing me only a total of $2.50 each

If you use the stop/tail sockets and switch the hot wires seperatly you can have low (tail light) Medium (Brake light) and high intensity with both filiments energized. :wine:
