Thats where I got the idea from.... I kinda wanted a easier way to see how they would look instead of welding all that stuff up and all that....

Sell it or stash it in the garage... Its in almost perfect shape. the black part in the middle looks like it is sticking out a tad more in the middle of it than the sides...

I thought for sure your was the first like that. Those side markers on that Bronco would look much better if they were slighty higher so they were centered with the main tail light.

Well i ended up doing something like u did Tex. they are above the bottom of the hitch tho. I also have them run off a relay, as they are 55 watts each. So I ran a 12 guage wire back there, and hooked up some lights in the topper too, so than I can see in there when its dark
