I have tint, and sometimes it’s hard to see out when in reverse using only the stock lights.
I also will work around my vehicle at times (front and back), and there is no real way to light up behind the vehicle aside from opening the hatch (which isn’t always the best to actually use).
I’m thinking of placing the Squadron Sport Flush Mount “Work Scene” pods in the rear as indicated in the below picture:
A few questions:
1. I believe I’ve seen someone do this (has been some time ago), but can’t find their pictures/any install info. Anyone know who it was?
2. Is there a way to have these light up when in reverse, AND be able to operate independently on a switch in my cockpit?
3. Does anyone have experience with the length of the harness (both the length for running it to the front of the vehicle from the rear, but also the length of wiring BETWEEN the lights) which Baja says you have to order to make these work? I emailed this question to their support, but haven’t heard anything back in almost a week.
Yes - I’m aware cutting into the stock bumper is somewhat frowned upon, etc, etc, but I’m not buying a steel bumper anytime soon, and this is certainly going to help function-wise.
