Rear Bumper reverse lighting
I have a Warn rear bumper and want to install some lights in it. I was thinking like a 4in round light that mounts with a grommet. Well turns out 4in is going to be to big. I need suggestions on another size and where to get lights. A 3in round light would be the biggest I would want. Even a square light would work. Any input would be helpful. Round or square, LED or incandescent. Where is the best place to buy?
My factory reverse lights don't work and they sucked anyway. Thanks in advance

Go to Wal-Mart & get some cheap lights & mount them in the bumper like you said.They should be protected by the bumper but if they get broken,who care,you go back & buy some more.
Cheap,simple.

Here's an option I've been looking at. Not too expensive. I was going to mount them on the underside of the bumper because of the tailgate, and I've got the bumper mounted tire carrier. I want to be able to turn them on from inside the cab too.

Thanks offroadordnance, I think I found a set I like. I'm broke for the moment since I just got a spartan locker for the front, so it will be a month before I can get them, but I like to know in advance what I will waste my money on. haha

I was goin to suggest them in the hatch how I have mine but you said that you have a tire carrier and they would be blocked anyways. Another way you could prob to it could be on the carrier its self.
I did mine this way but have to figure out something later when I build my carrier.

Hbracing that looks awesome, but my tire would block all the light. To mount lights on the tire carrier would be harder since the wiring would have to be loose enough for the tire carrier to swing.
