Nothing fancy, just re-used the white LED lights I had
mounted in the tool box I took off last week.

The hardest part was committing to drill that first pilot hole
for the jig saw. Once you've done that, there's no looking back :eek:

I also re-used the switch inside the cab to manually turn them on/off.

And just why are you tormenting me this way? It sure would be helpful backing up to my trailer when I am hooking up at night.

so much for "less is more" huh !

:lmao I have had this on my mind for along time bush and finally jumped right in late yesterday evening.

I think it has a less is more came straight from the factory look, plus I gave too much
for them not to be used.

Hmmmmm, seems you have some mounted to the underside of your
rear bumper bush, could that be "more??"

Barrett, they are very bright and will come in handy for the tailgators too. :sweet

Dang I had been toying with that same idea for a week since I got my windows tinted!!! I have the same problem...not wanting to @zz up my bumper. I was gonna use some 4" round lights. I'm highly interested to know what kinda lights they are. I was also worried about the chrome popping off around the hole. Are those some real shallow lights? To use the lights I was looking at I'd hafta cut the brace thats in behind the bumper. Since the parts for my frontend install wont be here til next week I'm gonna try to tackle this mod this weekend! Possibly some night pics???

man youre kinda sensitive these days huh... :rolleyes:

I didnt say you shouldnt have 'em...just that youve been pulling
things off the truck lately...

the factory reverse lights are for **** ! I'd be interested in hearing
how you wired 'em for operation, reverse only ? off ? or on ? at any
time ?

Im wonder how they compare in "brightness" compared to halogens,
lord knows your LEDs cost alot more !
