Flush mount reverse lights

[canonicom1]

Has anyone put some flush mounted LED lights on their rear bumper or in the rear bumper step? I’ve seen it done on the older trucks but nothing newer.

Definitely have thought about adding the Rigids. The bumper cutting keeps me hesitant.

Same! No going back if you mess it up

I put them on all my Duramax trucks. Great for checking trailer hook ups and tying stuff down in the dark. Helps with backing some too.

I ran a separate switch and relay for mine to make sure I leave them on.

STEP LIGHTS, I have been working on a factory-looking way to mount a set of Baja Designs lights in the rear steps to use as scene lights and a way to turn them on without having to place the vehicle in reverse. I have created these pod light holders and a complete wiring harness that is 100% plug-and-play. The lights are activated with the cargo light switch. This all started because I felt the bumper was not a good option, with all the bracing and supports behind the bumper. The kit is now available at podholes.com

Looks good! I used Baja Design lights in the rear bumper of my Bison and they are bright as hell. This should be a nice kit for those without the bumper cut outs!

I’ve utilized Diode Dynamics for my hood mounted pod lights. Any plans to make another pod for other lights?

I'm working on one for the front under the headlight! It is a lot of work getting this area opened up, and it will only work on the ZR2!

The lasfit Leds in place of the stocks are bright enough for me.

I went with these mounts from Godz Mfg because I didn't want to cut holes in the bumper

Just to be clear, as the website is not, does the kit come with the lights, pods and harness?

I just launched the website and I will make it more clear. Thanks!!! The kit comes with the pods and wiring harness, the lights are sold separately at Baja Designs MSRP. Thanks again for the input!

 

[canonicom1]

Where is the harness you are plugging in to? Awesome product

 

[Pod Holes]

How's it going, thanks for the question. We grab power and ground by T-ing into the 7-pin which gives power to the waterproof relay, we pick up the the cargo switch by T-ing into the harness/BCM at the rear of the truck. 100% plug-n-play!!!!

 

[canonicom1]

Good to know. Do install instructions or a video come with the product?

 

[Pod Holes]

I should have a full install video tomorrow

Any issue with the truck sensing a trailer? I added simple light bar w/ reverse by adding an inline male/ female 7 pin and 5 pin flat adapter. Now it senses "trailer" when I choose accessory I still loose park assist and rear cross warning

Thanks for the questions! Yes, I am working on a front mount for the ZR2 and one for the new 2024 front foglight area. I have had this set up on my truck for months now with no issues, I tow multiple times a week and everything is working fine.
