Thats cool.

But, Why? And do you think there will be a plastic deformation issue with time? HIDs get pretty hot.

How did you do it?

Why not, his lighting in reverse is more likely 3x brighter. Seems like a creative mod if you don't want the extra set of ground lighting mounted to your bumper. HID's will not deform the plastic, they don't produce enough BTU's, lol.

I don't think there will be an issue with heat. It's your reverse lights, they aren't on very long anyways.
