Nice setup,what's the wattage on the lights ? I noticed that the wires to the backup lights are small when I spliced in my backup camera and would like more lighting on the rear for backing up.Does anyone know how much you put on the backup light circuit.

 

In one of the first pictures you can see that he is using a relay... I would guess he ran his own power wire and is only using the backup circuit to trigger the relay. In which case it pulls virtually no current.

 

correct, sorry i didnt come back to my own thread until now

 

Thought I'd steal an idea from you Pat. Between the factory privacy glass and taillight tint it used to be hard to see in reverse at night.



Thought the last picture was kinda a cool side effect.

 

Hey could one of you guys walk me through the wiring? If i just go and buy a set of fogs from auto zone and splice into the wires going to my fogs in my brake lights itll all work? is that right?

 

Hey Patman:

Don't keep showing me these cool mods - I may have to spend a week when I'm down in Austin next month!!!

 

You have some pretty awesome ideas put in to your truck. I work at night. This is going to be a 100% must.

 

i did the same thing but i used a rect. shape about 1 x 3 in size and drilled and tapped a 1/4 x 20 thread hole into the reciever hitch mount ( one light on each side) angled the lights out slightly and down a little wired into center pin (7 pin conn.) and you get good light on the ground and to the sides but with this you also get good light behind you for those obsticles that are a little higher up. i'l take pic today and try to post them.
