new reverse lights
EDIT - MORE NEW PICS AT THE BOTTUM OF THIS POST
Well, I finally got some free time, so I threw them on. I know this isnt a new mod, just wanted to share.
Just did this today at noon, so I dont even know what they look like at night yet, I will try to take some night shots later if the wind dies down.
In the pics it was blowing like 15-20 MPH with snow, and the sun is shining, so the pics suck. I will take more soon.
Basically they are high enough they woulnt catch anything anything and low enough to get light out under the bumper, I used a 4 inch hose clamp and clamped them to my hitch that has a tube design, ran the wire along with the factory harness on the drivers side frame rail, up to a custom switch that is mounted just below the gauges next to the headlight switch.
And my hands were all dirty after all the wire running and everything, it got the dash dirty, that usually doesnt happen.




Ok these pics were taken at dusk, it wasnt light, and it wasnt dark, so....
This one was with the parking lights and LED reverse lights in stock tail light housing

This was with the parking lights and only the new reverse fog lights (the background looks so much darker because these lights are so much brighter they are confusing the camera)

This is from the back with the parking lights, and LED reverse and foglight reverse on

it all depends on where you voltage to the switch is coming from.
Right now mines if direct from the battery (with an inline fuse) so yes they can be turned on with the key off.
I am debating something in the Run position so that if they are left on they can not drain the battery.
