I am looking to install lights at the rear of my truck. Better backing up and hooking/unhooking the camper at night. My question is has anyone mounted Led bars at the bottom of the bumper, can it be done, or would it mess up the lights. The other option would be to mount them in the rear bumper. As anyone seen that done,mm or done it. I am not fond of cutting into the bumper if I don't have to. Any other options out there. Thanks.
I’m planning on installing these, I’m my rear bumper, when we get some warmer weather. Hole saw, push the light in from the back, using the mounting holes I’ll use some stainless screws with lock nuts. Holes are easier to drill clean than trying to cut square holes.
I’ve used this company before, great quality, excellent customer service too.
I really like those lights. I was planning on cutting square holes for square lights, but what you said makes since. I may buy those and use a hole saw to do it. Oh and to the original poster. Put them in the bumper. Looks way better, and they are much more protected there.
I went with two sets mounted to the receiver. You can only see the set facing rearward when looking at the truck. But the lights facing the sides really help out.
I just tied rock climbing lights into the reverse and added better back up lights for the same reason. I also have the reverse and rock climbing lights tied into a switch so I can turn them on while I am at the back of the truck. The front rock climbers are only tied into the driving lights for better visibility on the side.
When I added an extra light set to the rear of my truck, I also added a 12 volt relay attached to the receiver. I tied the trigger wire for the relay into the backup light and ran a 12 v power wire and in-line fuse from the battery to the relay. That way I can power as many lights as desired without overloading the small wires on my backup light circuit.
