light bar and reverse camera
 

hey what are you guys doing that have light bars and reverse cameras? i want to put a light bar on our 08 KR but the cord to the reverse camera blocks off about 2 red leds and one white reverse leds depending on which angle your at. being picky i cant stand that. lol is there i way to drill a hole above the light bar and run the cable through there? i dont want to cut the wires and be splicing them back together. just some input is needed, maybe some pics.

p.s. i dont have the light bar yet, just held up my buddies new one to see how bad the cord obstructed the leds. thanks in advance fella's

:beers:

Drill all you want, its your truck. lol
Depends on which led lightbar you get, you may end up with some of the leds not working anyway because of a cheaply made lightbar.

Recon comes to mind... I had one of their crappy light bars...

Recon bashing again huh? My Recon Xtreme works great and I've had it for over a year.

Lol I did have any problems with my recon either? Lol I just wanted reverse lights and got a good deal on a anzo light bar that works flawlessly as well. My recon never had a bit of trouble. But does anybody know of any connections in the reverse camera wire which would keep me from cutting it? I would go out and look but the trucks 300 miles away right about now. Lol

Don't be lazy, you can walk. lol
I don't know anything about the reverse cameras. My cameras are old fashioned, I think they are referred to as mirrors. lol Post a pic when you get a chance, or you could take this topic over to the electrical section and I'm sure Scully will chime in. He knows his stuff and I always see threads where he always has a diagram for every electrical wire there is.

Lol ok I guess I could wait till the truck gets back. I was just gunna order it so it would be here when it got back. My 04 camera is only mirrors too. Lol but hey we have 3 of em! Well I only have two basically since my back window is so dang dark

Not bashing, just sharing. People need to know the highs and lows of a product.

None of their stuff I've had was quality for the price. The Recon led 3rd I had the board was separating from the light. Granted that was no big deal to fix, it's the principle behind having to do that for the price I paid for it.

Not a fan of their low quality product and I'll share that info when I please.

No problem Stealth, I just found it funny how that it's the second time you said that in only a few days. I understand everyone has different experiences with the same products. :beers:

Well, when it was working properly I was very happy with my Recon line of fire. :lol:

Well, just thought of it. I had a set of Recon Platinum Blue headlight bulbs that lasted about 6 months before the one burnt out. I guess I had a bad Recon product at one time too.

i installed there platinum blue ones one a buddies truck about 4 months ago and so far he still likes them. its a chevy so its only a single filament low beam not a dual filament like ours.
