    Interested in seeing what you guys have done for auxiliary reverse lights. I am looking to do this in the near future and have already run the wiring. The thing is I want to do a stealth install where you can't really see the lights themselves but the light is still there.

    Post em up

    Damn you got the 60”. I’ve been thinking about one but everything I’ve read said to go with the 48”. Did you have any issues getting it to fit?
