Cool Help w/White Lights on rear Bumper

Okay Everyone
I am thinking of Installing a pair of LED Lights White or Amber in color lights on the rear Bumper so when I am backing up the area will be well lit. I seen someone do this on a Thread but I can not find it. I am searching for Help of this Thread.

That's a great idea! I've always thought the back-up lights were really inadequate. Besides, I need all the help I can get while backing up.

^^ FOR Z-MAN ^^

In most States it is illeagal to have amber lighting facing the rear of the vehicle, as it confuses other drivers into thinking a vehicle is heading towards them. Even though your amber backups would not be illuminated while driving forward, the lenses would still reflect amber to drivers behind you, resulting in your getting a lot of tickets. My advice is go with white* or red, as both are legal (*white can only be illuminated while in reverse).

Hope it helps,

Thanks for the Information but the Code 3 Brand name are Clear and you can not tell what color they are untill you turn them On, but your right the White will be better I was just thinking of Amber.

Thanks again.
