Default So I got me some HID reverse lights.

So instead of getting new tail lights with clearer reverse lenses, I decided to just install some dedicated lamps instead.

I have no better pictures at the moment other then these two. My camera died right as I walked around the back to get some better pictures.

This is with all my auxiliaries lights on.





and just for kicks:



They are a pair of Pilot driving lights that I put 55 watt HID bulbs into. In reality, the ground would be much brighter, but I have them aimed up for a sort of "dual purpose" so to speak. Great for backing up in the bush, and even better for tailgaters!

I put 4 cheap *** driving lights on the back of mine. At first I was worried when I came up with the idea that 4 would look funny but I actually like it. They are the crappy plastic housing lights. Once they break I'm probably gonna put metal ones on there. The plastic ones don't stay tight.

Yours look sweet. That's kinda a neat pic

the lamps you installed in the back, did you wire them into your back up lights? or just put them on a switch
