RowdyRebel Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 The tank I usually pull has work lights mounted on the rear....just flip a switch in my cab and they light up. Before I hooked to this trailer and wired up a switch to control them, I had mounted a pair of cheap ($18 @ Wal-Mart) driving lights on the top of my mirrors aimed backwards. Turn 'em on and I can see what's behind me in the dark just fine.Lights are fairly easy to mount and wire up to a switch...don't need any high-dollar fancy flip-out lights.

Rob Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Back up lights are like windshield wiper blades to me; never thought about till you need them to make the task much easier.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
