Hey all. If you are looking to add a little extra reverse lighting, I thought I'd share what I did.
I had purchased some cheap, like maybe $20 for the pair cheap, Amazon 7" LEDs (Spot patterned) that I was going to mess with on the front of the truck. I ended up not using them so in a pile they sat. If I can find the link, I'll add that here.
I had been looking to do the rear bumper flush mount others had done here. I wasn't 100% on the look and it would be fairly permanent if I didn't care for it.
Anyway, I noticed if I flipped the brackets around, these would fit perfectly on the bottom plate of the stock hitch for those who have it. I lined it up, drilled two holes, mounted it up, then tapped it directly to the reverse light. It's hardly noticeable and sits pretty tight to the truck. I wouldn't recommend doing this with a high dollar light but it's been on there for a little over a year with no problems. A fog pattern may serve you better for width but I don't have any problems with blinding children in parking lots. Some poor shots below to give you an idea.
