    Lots of threads on how to tap into reverse lights.. Google search seems to work better than the search bar at the top right of your screen.

    Hey what brand did you get?

    I have always liked them, but seem most people dont, they either look goofy to most or the bulbs/leds burn out and look tacky cause they dont all light up
