    I got one of those inexpensive steel rear bumpers to replace the OEM plastic bumper that exploded upon a 2 mph parking lot mishap. The new bumper came with LED lights in it, which could be handy when coming out of icy hockey rinks late at night, as they always have dark parking lots. Are there remote on/off switches for such things? A small remote I can add to my keychain and turn on when walking towards the car...
    Any info appreciated.

    If you have a working FOB, you could tie into the Cargo Lamp circuit switch. When you press unlock the LED would activate.

    Customers have negative opinions about the connectivity, bluetooth range, and difficulty of the relay. They mention that it wouldn't connect, the app does not locate and pair with the device, and that the switch takes a second to turn on. Customers also differ on performance.
