Good question. The reverse lights are pretty sucky on these things. I was thinking of integrating some new lights into my rollpan, but I don't think I'd like how that would look.

There may be a Halogen bulb replacement.

I was thinking of getting some of those really slimline driving lights from Walmart and mounting them between the bumper and box, under the tailgate. Don't know if there's room or not though. When I build my window-saver I'm going to mount a couple of those slimline lights on that for backups.
