No not yet. I need to first install my Whellen Switch box then I might add them. They seem a tad bit dull but at night I am sure they will shine. They are tucked way up so unless your a low rider you can't see them. The bumper blocks a little bit of light but not enough to make the lights useless.

Go to Carquest and replace the lamps with some aircraft landing lights. We bought the same lamps you have just for the rubber housing...did not use the lamps.

I dont know where the nearest one is. I will have to look. But I still think these will be bright enough for now untill i find a carquest. I was inside a truck bay with flourescent lights all over the place, so that may have had something to do with it.

Looks good, I guess by the looks of your back up lights you have them set to come on in reverse automatically?


Nice set up.

yep! That's how we got them set up.

Good job Ryan! Looks sweet!

The switch shouldn't take too long to do!

The Carquest lights are pretty cheap, and they pop right in. I have no idea what the part number is any more. It uses a clear lens, instead of a fluted one!

I just need to get some wire loom on some of the exposed areas of wire to clean up the look.

No worries dood!!! it's all good. Enjoy the mod!!! You can also set up another set of lights that flood the area ahead of the rear tires to help you parallel park as well! And wire them into the dome light, so they'll light up in the parking lot while you're loading your bed!!

Yea I have that in the plans. I might try something different with that. I am not tall enough for the lights like kevin has so I might have to try somethng different, maybe a large set of licence plate lights will work for me.
