The question surfaced a while back. It's the lenses themselves 
that have to become DOT certifed, not the lighting elements. So 
you could go ahead with your idea of converting existing units. 
Just think of them as "core" units. :)

Off hand, if you wanted some quick info on which direction to go, 
try contacting an Underwritters Lab. Perhaps they would know 
which direction to go in.
