additional backup lights
Anyone done a nifty install of additional backup lights? I do alot of bowfishing at night and it sure would be nice to have some extra light back there when backing up the boat. plus i could think of many other cases where the extra light back there would be nice especially after i tint my tail lights.
I've seen a few trucks around town that have done this but the execution of the concept was below par. Rather than using big 4" lights that stick out like a sore thumb, i wanted to use some low profile LED lights that look cleaner.
I also thought about hooking these up to my reverse lights some how rather than a switch.
any thoughts or pics?

Was a guy who made a thread not to long ago with a 2010 NNBS, he put HID's in the reverse lights. They were very clean and extremely bright. It looked like a nice install.
Search HID and it was like the first thread or two, something like, HID crazy

probably better to run LED's vs. HID's because HID's take a bit to warm up. i forget the site but im sure that someone else can chime in and pick up my slack.

ezdaar,
yep i saw your post and i appreciate it. In matter of fact, i ordered some of those same lights. But your's was the only reply i got, so I thought I'd try again just to see what other options where.
