Not LED but these are my reverse lights, i didn't really like the look of a pod hanging down so i went for a more stealthy look.

Just tapped into the stock reverse light with t-tap connectors and grounded to the bumper mount. used self tapping screws and mounted to the same spot as the OP. they look perfect to me and aren't too obvious. Ill get some night pics tonight

Reverse or trailer reverse? A few pages page someone posted that tapping reverse lights (from taillight housing) caused some issues with computer.

 

Looks good though.

Reverse not trailer reverse, i haven't had any issues of yet. i just tapped one light into either side as to not draw too much power from one side

Installed my flush mounts. Wired to trailer harness reverse. Very bright and now I can see. I may angle the pods up just a bit, but not too much or it will mess up the flushness of it.

I should do the LEDs, but in red and hooked in to the brake lights. 1000 lumen add'l brake lights would rock!

Doesn't interfere with camera either

I just got the replacements Black Widow 900 lumens (from Snevey's) and at night they give me a green / blue hue in the center of the screen. When I shut off the lights it is gone. Any ideas ???

The only thing different was I connected to the green wire as it came out of the light socket and also used the blck as a ground . The lights are black widow not scorpion. He said those leaked

So I've been looking and haven't found an answer to this yet... Can the stock cargo switch be reprogrammed to come on while in drive/reverse... I know from the factory it only comes on when in neutral or park...

 

trying to decide if I want/need to wire a separate switch for reverse/work lights back there.

 

thanks in advance.

This link will show you how to use a diode so that your cargo's will ALWAYS be on when your reverse lights on. I don't believe anyone has found a way to have the cargo's on while in drive though. Pretty sure that I seen on here that it is controlled in BCM. Don't quote me on that.
