Lightbulb Rear 2" Fog and 2" Reverse LEDs

http://store.boatnrv.com/boatnrv/det...p?ITEM=3202490

So, I'm thinking about drilling two 2 inch holes, one on each end of the rear bumper of my 2000 4Runner. The left will be a 2" Red LED for a rear fog light, the right a 2" White LED for the reverse light. What do you guys think, ghetto? Otherwise I'll just figure a way to make a Rear Fog out of my RR factory lens.

well, do what you want but the white LED will only be as bright as a fog so i'd just do the 2 white LED's. Definately be good for those night trail rides. Good luck.

Instead of drilling holes in your bumper, would it not be easier to mount a set of cheap fog lamps under your bumper and use those instead? Many others here have mounted various types of fogs under their rear bumpers, if rearward visibility is your goal. There are also specific lamps with red lenses you could mount in place of one of the fogs, if you absolutely have to have a rear red fog light.

Just my .02,

YA MAN, I SAY GO FOR IT.
ONE QUESTION, WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO GET THE CLEAR 2" L.E.D's FROM. I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR A WHILE AND HAVEN'T FOUND THEM ANYWHERE.
