One more project done! Update w/photos
Well I will have pictures later, but finished adding some real backup lights to the 5er last night. :B
This rig didn't have as part of the stock light setup.
The biggest challenge (or so I thought) would be getting the wire up to the pin box. That turned out to be easy peasy! I simply tugged on a couple of the existing wires and found that they moved easily between the pin box and the front compartment. Cut one at the pin box, tied a replacement wire and the new wire to it and pulled both in with no issues.
Installed a relay in the front compartment so as not to over load the backup light circuit on the TV.
Now arriving late with not be an issue!! Plenty of light to see where I am backing up into.
Well finally got the pictures. Looks like I need to wash it after the last trip.
