Question: lights installed in factory bumper

Has anyone installed lights (for back up purposes) in their factory rear bumper. I'm looking for lighting options when backing up, the factory back up lights just aren't bright enough.

 

I have these that I bought on Amazon. They use a single bolt for mounting and on the stock rear bumper there are two mounting tabs that work perfectly for these. i tapped into the reverse light power wire at the taillights.

 

Just cut, drill, and splice into reverse lights?

 

i put in some flush mount baja designs in mine. spliced into the reverse lights and actually removed the bulbs too. super bright.

 

very nice, this is what I am looking for. What lights did you use, and what did you use to cut into the bumper

 

Mark out the hole. Use a drill to put 7/16 holes on opposite corners inside the marked area. Use jigsaw with HSS blade to cut bumper. Be aware of location of support brackets.

 

I ran them into their own switch

 

I used nilight flushmounts on Amazon and a Milwaukee cutter with diablo diamond disc

 

Amazon specials.

 

Forgot to take a picture today. You can see one of them in this picture. Ebay specials. They work pretty well.

 

Better pic. Chrome bumper that got sandblasted and coated after my truck got clipped by a blonde turning into the parking spot next to it.
