So reverse lights are bad on most cars to begin with. You cant see well in dark when you parking in dry weather but in rain or fog it becomes almost impossible.
Many do just extra led lights on roof rack when modifying car a lot for overlanding offrading but what if you want to keep that stock look and not blind anyone when reversing. Well my cheap version of it.
And they very hidden , you wouldnt even see them while standing.

Very cool.

Looks great, It looks really bright for being in factory location. I installed a set of Baja designs S2 sports for rear lights. Hooked them up to my MLC-6 so I can turn on and off as needed. View attachment 141132View attachment 141133
thats what i call proper off road lights we would need to to turn on demand and some on sides would be even better so you could lights up all around you when driving in bush

For small leds you can just tap straight to the factory back light wires , they draw such little amps I don’t see it ever causing a problem , done it will no my last couple rigs and it never caused a prob . Great placement btw , It’s definitely hard to get that balance between putting enough light outs back there that you can see and not blinding other people every time you put it in reverse .
