Rear Lights

[Mike175]

I tinted my front windows to match the rear and I cannot see squat out of my side view mirrors or rear camera when I back up. I always back in to every parking space, as well as my long driveway. I believe it’s the safest and definitely the most tactical. I typically put down the windows but in heavy rain and the winter here in NY fast approaching I want a better option.
I know there are a hundred million different lighting options out there and everyone has a hundred million different opinions. I am looking for budget friendly (hunting season has my full budget) something that I can add to aid in lighting up the rear of my truck when I back up. Just looking for something I can add to the underside of the truck giving me good rear coverage. Eventually I plan on getting an ADD or the like rear bumper with lights, but right now at the moment my slush fund is tied up in new firearms, ammo, and hunting gear.
Any direction and help would be greatly appreciated!

Stealthy install Rigid Dually Floods I got for a good price from TMX. This is a tucked and sheltered location on the back of the leaf shackle, that has held up to hard offroading. Adjustable up and down to get the light where ya need it for backing up. Wired into the trailer harness. A one beer job.

Looks great I had mine mounted for a year like that until I got my ADD bumper and they held up great

Orangeaddict did a nice flush mount install that looks good. He tapped right into the reverse lights for power.
Hopefully he'll see this and fill in the details. It's a nice clean installation for the stock bumper.

I've got Rigid Dually's diffused, flush mounted in to stock bumper. They work amazing

I swapped my stock reverse lights for 38 watt lights (stocks are only 18 watts). Here's how to http://www.fordraptorforum.com/f81/38-watt-reverse-lights-20758/

Also, I added this cheap light plug in to the 7 pin trailer plug $17 Amazon.com: Blazer C8020 Light Buster Trailer Hitch Accessory Light-1 each: Automotive

Helps a lot!

Thank you everyone! Motomute, exactly what I was looking for! Thank you for the pictures! you guys on here are far more intelligent than I am. I probably wouldnt have come up with that on my own.
I will have to look into getting a pair. I may wire them into an Aux switch for the time being. I think I like the idea of having the abolity to light up the rear while out in the field, and or for those pesky tailgaters.

SR-M2 flush mount is what we went with. Works great, we did flush mounts and put them vertically next to the license plates
