Buddy of mine got a pair of snow plow lights from a neighbor and he passed them on to me. Used to make a combo rear work light, directional and hazard flasher set up on my RTV. Little over kill, but the price was right. Heavy mounts will latter be used as base for tool carrier.

I see an eye, and the face, right in the middle of the photo.

Great; do'nt have to put a rear view mirror on that side.

How are you controlling the flasher and directional part of the lights??? What are you using for a switch?

I want to put flashers (turn signals) on the rear of my mule, but don't want to have to buy one of the kits.

BTW. I looked at plow lights online and they are about $200.00 a pair. You got lucky!!!

Looks like a good deal to me. Just watch that one on the right side i think it has a mind of it's own:D

Firefighter: I found a harness in the fuse compartment that was hot only when the key was on. I ran that as a power wire to the front as well as two additional wires to return the power to the amber lights (had an old trailer wiring harness that worked perfect, also gave me wires to run to the work light switch and back to the relay). That hot wire I ran into a flasher then split it going out into 2 switchs. Then a ground off the switchs and the return wires to the lights. When I want a directional, I use one or the other switchs, when I want flashers, I use both.

Gotcha! Clear as mud :D . Just kidding! I didn't know if you actually bought one of the kits with the turn signal levers or wired it up yourself.

Don't like the switches on those kits. Most made to mount below dash. Just picked up parts at Autozone and NAPA
