Reverse light options

[Joe's_Roxy]

I went with SuperbrightLEDs Replacement Rock Lights. I did just the two pods because I didn't want a whole set. I am VERY please with these lights. Good rugged housing (aluminum), good looks, and super bright leds!! LOL THey have been there for 2 years and no issues. I used a self-tapping screw to attach the lights to the bumper (drilled a small pilot hole before finishing the hole with the screws). Wired the lights into the 7-pin connector wire for the back-up lights.

Those look good... Light output / flood looks decent..

Any chance you could take a closeup pic of one of those installed lights and post here. Thanks in advance.

I've been considering this for a bit now. Just haven't made the leap yet.

Good find. I'm super interested in hearing from someone that has this. I've been eyeing three mods, and this covers two of the three.

Looking at the pic, I don't see how (I could be mistaken as I have not seen the light bracket in person) the left light and it's bracket clears the the oval shaped box that holds the 7 pin/4 connectors.. So not plug and play, you'd need to do some jury rigging so to speak it seems when installing those.. Problem is, there is little free play in the wiring going to the connector box so moving it may be an issue.

Very good point! I might call the company tomorrow & get more info. I will then post any findings.

Thoughts on these? Anybody have them? For backup lights. I am able to purchase them at a hefty discount. Any input appreciated.

$44 and they fit the steel bumper! What a concept!?

I like your approach, cost effective and looking great! I just checked the product page, it says 213 lumens per light. Do you feel 400+ lumens sufficient for backup use in the night? I back into my long and narrow driveway every day. Kinda hard to see in winter nights especially theres a creek on the side.

I’m also thinking about wiring them to AUX switch directly, not tapping into the reverse lights. Because I don’t need them normally, only late nights.

This thread is over 2 years old. Not sure that you'll get a response.

I am still extremely pleased with the lights. I can see everything I need to when backing up. WAY BETTER THAN STOCK!!!
