i think they would be nice for behind the grille lights too. nice power and very descreet.

i also thought it weould be nice to have i work for reverse AND a switch. have the convienence of not hitting a switch for reverse, but being able to turn them on for hooking up a trailer or any other behind the truck need.

They actually make a light that fits in the receiver. It gets wired to the trailer pigtail and comes on with your backup lights. I have a fishing/hunting buddy in Ga. with one. Very bright. If I find out where he got it or who makes it, I'll post a link...

I would like to try and use a seat warmer switch and make that the switch for the lights. Top button =front lights behind the grill. Bottom button = backup lights. Is it possible to wire up the backup lights with reverseAND a switch? That would becool.

Yea, I Am Gonna Call It A Night..

I Thought These Where Low Amp Bulbs.. They Produce A Ton of AMPS And Cannot Be Wired With Your Stock Harness..

A: I Have To Solely Use A Switched Power
B: A Current Sensing Relay To My Reverse Lamp Power - 12V Supply.

I Have The Lights Mounted. Don't Feel Like Running Wire Tonight - I Will Pick Up Tomorrow.

It's Gonna Be A Project[:@]

Oh, I Know My Lights Have Those Beat! Someone on Another Forum Reminded Me. Because They Use The H3 Bulb.. You Can Swap The 55W Bulb With A 100W, Without Replacing The Ballas
