yes,
FIVE (5) AMBER TRIANGLE CAB CLEARANCE LIGHTS - LED - 15 DIODES - 2 WIRE W GASKET | eBay

I don't know if the oem fixtures are the same for the axis, but they seem to be the same thing thor uses everywhere. The stock fixtures have a foam gasket, that I found to be shriveled and deformed, looked to be from heat up there in the sun.... and the bases are designed like cups, so that they collect water rather than shedding it. So it's not just the screw that needs to be sealed. As best as I could tell, there's not a huge danger of water actually leaking into the coach, but the fixture and bulb getting wet can't be good for a long time electrical connection. ANd the things are certainly not sealed either,,,, two screws to mount aren't sealed, nor is the hole for the wires.....

Anyway, these LED fixtures were completely sealed with a wire pigtail. they have screws for mounting, but the folks that did my spray on roof just glued them down for me using 5200, after sealing the wire holes where it goes into the coach with the roofing. Plenty bright and look ok. They have been in service since September or October, so far so good
