I'd like to see some pics of your extra reverse lights. How you mounted them would be great!

 

I bought the KC backup light kit, and then bought the Fog Light lenses for it as the spots that came with it didn't light up the back that much. On my bumper bracket there happened to be two holes that were on either side of the hitch. Freaking worked great. I think Ford knew people where going to do this. I don't have any pictures of the install, but I think I have some that kinda show them.







If you want, I'll dig out the camera and take some pics tonight after work and toss them up here. Ain't much to it really.

 

You mount em right to the bottom of the bumper?

 

Thats were I mounted mine..

 

Mine are installed in the same place as everybody else, but I have mine wired on a double pole relay so they come on when I shift to reverse and I have a switch in the cab to turn them on.

Mounted


with reverse


with switch

 

I would love to have extra reverse lights, but I would want them to be more hidden

 

You can only hide them so much until they don't light what you need. Kinda give some, take away some sort of deal.

 

That's pretty much the reason I don't have any yet.

 

I keep breaking mine but I just put some more on there.

Here is my third set:

 

u can see them here.



and next to my current metal shop project.

 

Hahaha this picture is a classic

 

i just mounted mine to the trailer hitch, drilled and tapped and bolted them on, ill get a pic tonight, i just have them wired to come on with the reverse lights for now, i need to get a switch inside the cab tho.

 

story behind said metal projectile in said tailgate?

as for this thread....im looking forward to more.

i always wanted to flush mount a reverse light into my bumper...but idk how well it'd look...

 

Now there LEDs

 

Old pics, before my hitch was installed & before I painted my tail lights.

 

from what I see they only look good on lifted trucks... I would love more light when I back up but on a stock truck??? doesn't look as good imo.

These are really nice to have when backing the boat down the ramp at night.

 

whats the point for having extra reverse lights. is it for when you have a hard time seeing when you back up at night?

 

Nah I like to use mine only when the sun is out

 

lol just to say that you got them huh

 

They come in handy in crowded parking lots at night...

No more stupid people walking up behind me when I'm backing out of a parking spot.

 

especially helpful if you have tinted windows, I still need to do this

 

Tinted windows don't help reversing at all. Extra reverse lights are a safety thing, not a cosmetic thing

 

That's the best pics I have of mine. I only have one because the other got broken in a crash. I also mounted it on top of the bumper so it wouldn't get taken out in situations like the top pic where the hitch was dragging on the ground.

 

nice Monster decal. where'd you get it?
