Thank you guys. Got some ordered. Time to look into going the LED route for the markers, but would like to keep the headlight incandescent for video recording reasons. LOU1985, can the headlight circuit handle both a incandescent and LED markers or would the FET blow?

I've run LED markers, LED head light, LED number board lights, LED firebox light, and LED cab lights off the headlamp circuit in a PS3 kit without issue. Just make sure to use a resistor on the anode of the LED. I usually use a 220-400ish ohm resistor on the headlight and then a 560 or so ohm resistor on the other lights, so they are dimmer than the headlight.
