We are currently working on a series of signs for retail centers and I was wondering if anyone had come across some scaled drawings, EPS files, of different styles of signs lights that can be easily placed in our proof. We've been making them ourselves but i have seen a lot of sign blank, monument, vehicle drawings but I haven't come across lights. Anyone seen some?

It sounds like you talking about lighting to illuminate signs, as opposed to backlit, neon or led internally lit signs? I've never seen such a thing.

I have seen products like the one below that may include what you are looking for in their stock clipart, but it may not be worth $500 or more for a whole lighting design package.

Not being an electrical contractor when I do outdoor monument signs that are to be illuminated with spot/flood lights I recommend that they have their own maintenance people install low voltage lighting or hire an electrician. For the proofs I don't include that.

If you have autocad you should be able to find what you want in it.
