Adding Better Reverse Lights on a Camper

Has anyone every installed a set of reverse lights on their camper. I was thinking of adding some powerful LED lights from Rigid Industries or Black Oak LED. Wiring them in will be the biggest task. Any suggestions?
Happy TC'N,

If you've got package railing on the roof you can attach Docking lights to it.

I put a pair of China's Best brand LED floodlights on the back of my trailer. They work great coming in to a dark site at night.

Should be easy enough to do on a TC... If you can find the wiring harness for your Bargman 7-way, you can tap into the reverse line there, or the harness for a tail light and pickup reverse there.

If you're looking at more than 20 watts of lights, consider using a relay to avoid taxing the existing lighting circuit.

Is the power of backup lights limited in Colorado? I’d check first.
