Rear bumper lights install, looking for advice..

[anthonycoley]

Hi,

I'm considering installing some rear flood lights ( or whatever you call them ) in my stock rear bumper. I'm actually going to cut holes in my bumper and mount them inside. I've seen some pics of someone's truck that did this, but I cannot remember where.

I was thinking I could just use a jig-saw or a whole saw to cut the bumper, but I'm looking for advice if anyone has a better suggestion.

If you've done this, can you post some pics?

Regards,
AC

using a hole saw and placing some round fogs would look GREAT on an 06

Matt put some fog lights on his old bumper. They stuck out a bit, but they looked pretty bitchin.



I have lights behind mine too, but I have a steel plate bumper.

Yeah, those do look good. They look like they're meant to there, kind of like they're factory. That's what I hope to achieve.. Do you know what kind of light he's using?

Looks like the back up lights they sell at Auto Zone. They're actually designed to mount on your hitch, but if you mount them using their stuff and you wheel, you'll break them. Those are good back up lights because they have a good flood pattern. The kit should be $20-30 last time I saw it. Buy the kit, throw the L brackets away, and keep the nice heavyduty zip ties for a useful project one day.
