Adding more reverse lights

Looking for the best kit to add additional light to the rear of the truck when backing up...

Would like them to be tucked under the truck and not attached to the bumper (hidden)

Would also like to connect them to the upfitter switches.

Have seen this before looking for ideas or practical expereience.

Stump put fogs on his bumper.

You can go to Welcome to RECON Truck Accessories and they have one that you plug into your trucks trailering wires and will have turnsignal, running light, brake light, and reverse light.

I got the one without the reverse lights before that one came out. I love it, but wish I had the one with the extra reverse light...

There is a product called White Knight that fits around your hitch receiver. It has 2 lights that point out toward the sides of the truck. I think Logan (BRRS3633) has it on his truck.

Another option is the Recon LED lightbar that fits under the tailgate and above the bumper. It has red turn signals, stop light and it all turns white for backup lights. I don't know how brite it is, but it looks pretty cool.

Yeh eventually my plans are the reconaccessory light setup and this from white night...





Here are my plans...

You have a male plug setup on your truck from the factory (or at least I do!?) and I plan to take 1 female plug and then splice 3 males into it. This way I can run both my extra reverse lights as well as the line of fire light as well as my trailer if for some reason I use that instead of the 5-pin connector. This will mean I can have all these accessories w/o splicing ANY factory wiring :-) Which I have vowed not to do! LOL I haven't yet!

It would be nice if I could hook a toggle switch to the backup lights though
