    Backup lights....

    I added some new LED backup lights to the Ranger today. Pretty straightforward install and they look pretty good. They're 1750 Lumens and pretty bright. I'll be making some adjustments so they don't interfere with other boats at the ramps.

    I got these from eBay and paid about $22 shipped. Install at home took about an hour. These are Kawell Lights, 1750 Lumens

    Brolland,
    I really like what you did. My trailer has a 4 prong plug. In order to install these lights I'll need to run additional wiring to the tongue and wire everything into a 7 pin plug. Not a very big deal but did you need to add any fuses/diodes etc to the backup light circuit to power these lights or do they simply run off the existing backup light circuit?

    Been using the Kawell lights for a couple of years. Still working great. Can't beat the price.

    If you are towing with a late model truck the wiring is already there in the plug. I did the same thing on mine but with bluewater and re did everything on my tracker. Here is the link or shoot me a pm and ill get yoy my number i can send you more pics.
