I was planning on it, but didnt have my camera until I was done.
Mark location for holes on bumper.
Use 1 5/8" holesaw for bumper holes.
Smooth down burrs and paint bare metal.
Install lights.
Run 2 red 12g wires from the lights to the front of the truck by the battery.
Run 1 back wire from behind the pass. side reverse light to the front of the truck by the battery.
Tap orange with silver stripe wire on stock reverse lights (remove the taillight) with the black wire.
Each red wire gets attached to one of the leads on the lights.
The other lead on the lights gets grounded (just ground to a close bolt).
I used a 40A 12V relay, although I have it fused at 30A, so a 30A 12V relay should work too.
Tie both red wires that you ran to the front of the truck together and attach them to #87 on the relay.
Ground #85 on the relay.
Attach #30 to the POS. side of the battery (be sure to fuse this line, I just used a 30A inline fuse from Radio Shack).
Attach the black wire that you ran to the front of the truck to #86 on the relay.
Mount relay to convenient bolt nearby battery.
DONE!
