Auxiliary Reverse Light Brand/Type
Ok, so there's a million forums on how to wire in some additional reverse lights, but very few people have posted what particular light they use or how satisfied they are with its performance.
Here's some more background on the project. I'm wiring 2 additional lights under my rear bumper, through a relay that runs straight to the battery with an inline fuse. That relay can be triggered by going into reverse or by manually switching it on (controlled by an on-off-on toggle switch). I also wired in a LED indicator light. My relay and switch are mounted, and nearly all of my wires are soldered. All I have left is to find the stock reverse light wire and determine which lights to use.
What do you recommend? MAX of $100 for the pair. I ran 16 guage for the lights themselves, so I can handle 2 55W halogens. I began with 2 55W lights from Advanced Auto for $25, but the beam pattern was strange and the light projected as a rainbow. I could see better without them, than with them
