Backup light pics

A few weeks ago I decided to ad some backup lights to my Tacoma using the rubber housing tractor lights mounted on each side of my hitch. These are very flexible and bright too! They are 35 Wat and light up the area behind me like daylight. Great for backing up or just for use around the camp, hunting fishing and so on.These are wired with a relay and I can use them without the key on. I never hooked them up to the backup light switch, just a separate switch on my council. The light mounted on my tool box is a K&C Halogen 55 watt and lights up the back and bed area. It is also on a separate switch and works great. Thanks to all who helped me with the mounting and weiring.Mike

Elton, Yes I did and it was the ground wire. The funny part was it acted up again and I was ready to pull my hair out. The little bulb in the switch went bad but they gave me a new one at the parts store. They all work great now. Mike
