Anyone one replace their clear OEM ones?
What about just lens and body gasket?
Thanks,
I believe in 1996 Newell was still using the Ford pickup cargo lights, 1982's - 1991 model F150's as I recall, for the yard lights. After I took mine apart and cleaned the lens well, I removed the very small single light bulb and put in a piece of cardboard with LED 5050 bright white strip lights folded back and forth to make about 4 rows. Lot's of light now.
My 1993 uses Chevrolet cargo light. I bought new ones here:

Jeff,
I think the yard lights are GM Truck 1973-87 Cargo Lamp Light Assembly Chevy GMC Housing Lens they have on eBay. What are you trying to change too? You can polish the lens. Do you not have LED bulbs in them now? My 04 has the same yard lights as your 96. I have change mine to LED bulbs and I thought I had done the same to your coach. If you need bulbs I might have some at home and will be there first week in sept. Michail I thinks the headlight are the 150 ford.
Dean and Ron, you are correct. The cargo light is a Chevy product. If you do need a replacement lens, here is another source:

The headlights on the pre-2000 coaches were Ford F150 units.

I think I understand what Michael did with the LED's. Is there a direct LED replacement bulb that is brighter than the OEM bulb?
They do brighten up with a bunch of 5050 LEDs in them.

These are the ones I used in mine: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EKKJJIK/ref=...25410_item

They fit and are a bit brighter than the incandescent.
