Rear Facing Lights

renorcr, did you drill through the rear guard tubing? If so, how'd you do it because i want to do it on my frontrunner
 
Now that's cool and I might just look into doing that, it will help with hookiing up my trailer or more importantly my boat.  But, I was referring to lights just behind the back glass hanging under the plastic there.
 
Here's my little super bright white LED rear lights. I have not wired them up yet. (Have to remove headliner)
But they are friggin bright!!!

where did you get those?
 
That looks great, Let me know how they do at night. I would be worried that the back of the bed would be in the way to light up the ground behind you. I am thinking of doing a set in the foot step on the back bumper. Have them mounted insdie so you can still put your foot on in them to get up onto the bed panels.

What i thought of doing for the cladded folks was to design a Flood lamp assembly to fit inside of the foot pocket completely.Then when you needed the step,there would be a spring loaded popper that would kick it out of the way on a custom designed bracket.But now that i think about it,just a simple bracket with a Neo Magnet would hold it in place just fine.

Here are mine Pilot 55 watt lights from Wally World, 19.95 for the pair. Used existing bumper bolts just drilled out the brackets.

I know this is a old post but I was wanting to know where you got that rear metal bumper that goes over your stock rear bumper and the tail light gaurds? I would love to know thanks!
 
It's a WAAG rear bumper guard. They don't make them anymore as the company focuses on the aviation industry now. You might be able to find a left over somewhere or on ebay or CL. As for the tail light guards, you should be able to find a set via google.
 
Has anyone tried mounting something directly to the cladding without going through the metal too? If it's somewhat light weight and the weight is distributed properly? Or is the cladding way too flimsy to trust something on it alone.

That is how my are mounted.
uses existing screw underneath I think and another right into plastic.
Wobble a bit but I do not need them for driving.
 
Interested in putting additional lights on the rear of my 2013. Can you run them through the hitch wiring?
