Back up Lights - Mr. Rottndog

Hi Mr. Rottndog

Can you tell me where you got the back up lights that mount around your hitch on that super sweet Xcursion of yours? Thanks!

Gwilkrrs.... i picked up the pilots at autozone (probably have them at any auto parts store... i am sure any brand will do, but i liked the ones i got... half moon shaped).

wiring was easy... found a sutable ground and the backup wire in the trailer wire harness (if i remember correctly it is the black/green wire... that was over a year ago, so i might be wrong on the wire color).

i will try and snap a pic for you.

yes... i just checked and it is the black wire with the green stripe... here is a pic of the lamps... yours would be flush with the bumper if you mounted them to the trailer hitch as i did.... (mine sit low since i have the body lift.

Make sure you are very very careful when doing any towing with the white knights kit installed. I was towing my enclosed trailer one night , and had to make a sharp turn and exploded the entire housing.

I now have two PIAA off road foglights mounted on each side of my hitch. Put out allot more light , and are completely out of the way...

I no longer have mine either. The blocker bar now occupies my hitch. The White Nights looked nice but had fallen apart several times in the year I had them on. Mostly due to people usually car wash personnel thinking that they would make a great step to stand on to wipe down the back window etc. The case is just plastic and hardly able to stand up to that sort of abuse. I'll probably get a pair of PIAA's or similar lights and mount them under the hitch or bumper!
