Added Lights to My Front Hitch Box
I've had the parts for this at least a year, and finally got time to work on it today.
The box is a truck bed toolbox that was given to me. It a shallow version, which I think is why it was given away.
The corner markers are Bores Bumper Guides. I installed those a year or so back. They light up with the marker lights, and blink with the turn signals.
Because the box sits just below the headlights, it casts a shadow on the road. I bought a couple of Hella 450 driving lights to help with that.

The lights and bumper guards plug in here. The lights are controlled by one of the upfitter switches in the cab.

Better view of the wiring and the mount.

Light covers on.

On it's "custom cart" I dug the old Lance bumpers out of my junk pile and put them on the cart so I can push it up against the wall and not damage the lights.

Can't wait to try them out! The boss sez they're Hella-cool :C
