According to ADRs they just have to be visible from a certain distance away, and mounted in the proper location.
I don't think there's a minimum size.

Give it some love.
Those autolamp LED's Foxtrot posted seem to last well ADR approved, and don't fade like others do, installed them most of my trucks.
