Title: MCI 9-12 Clearance Lights
Post by: jcdillin on June 20, 2016, 10:42:06 AM
Has anyone come across a exact replacement for the stock MCI clearance lamps? All of mine are full of water and or the backs are rotting out.

I found these https://www.mohawkmfg.com/shop/part/25245/ (https://www.mohawkmfg.com/shop/part/25245/) but would rather just find something sealed with LEDs from the start. I've found a bunch of suppliers but most are way bigger or smaller.

If anyone has suggestions on what they used that would be awesome.

Try IBP Industries.  They carry lots of aftermarket and NOS parts for all kinds of buses.  They are good people.

It's my belief that these are exact replacements for MCI lights.  I looked a bit but the best price I could find was around $50.  If you find a better price, or could negotiate a group buy price, I'd be in.

Jeremiah -

I suggest you order one to see what they're like.  If it's what you're looking for, then spring for a whole set.

FWIW & HTH. . .

Couldn't agree more, ordered one in each color to check fit and function.

The dialights are direct replacement, shop around you can get a decent deal

Let me throw some info in here. I know SUPERBRIGHTLEDS keeps getting suggested, but I have in the past purchased an entire set of expensive LED clearance lamps from them only to have individual LED's inside the housing burn out within months. They would send replacements for free but it got old constantly changing them out. When I purchase lamps for my 102C3, I'm going with a company that actually seals the housing with a urethane or polymer injected into it. Quality LED's and QC go a long way when your lights are 12 feet up in the air and you don't want to be changing them often. Vision LED makes such clearance lamps btw.
