I put one on my daughters 99 Mountaineer, works pretty well. The double sided tape didn't hold too long because there is a slight bend to the back of the Mounty. so its not perfectly flat like a truck, so I ended up putting a couple of sheet rock anchors on the end srews. The Mountaineer has a plastic bumper cover so I didn't drill in the bumpter and no one will notice the holes if I take it off.

I got the one that has the stop, lights, and turns but I think there is a kind that has back up lights too, but I didn't buy that one.

I had on on my F150 for awhile. Some of the lights burned out after a year and it looked goofy so I took it off. It was one of the first models so hope they are better now. I like the newest one with the back up lights (fire and ice?). The are very easy to install. plug into your trailer light plug and sticky tape.

I have the Rampage 6-function LED bar on my truck. It does signals (left and right halves of the bar), flashers, brake, running light, and reverse. I had it on my F150 prior to that and have not had any problems.

The Rampage is the only one we carry in the store. We have had some problems with bad LED's but the price of the bar is the best of the bunch and we keep enough on hand to replace a bar for a customer if they have a problem.

The P/N is 960136.
