Default Reverse lights

anybody mounted aux reverse lights? I bout a 2" hitch adapter that goes over the hitch where it's still useable but it doesn't fit due to the weld and how close it is to the back plate. Looking for answers. BC this doesn't work it appears to be a series chassis. I went and looked at it today. He was asking 1500 and it's in bham Alabama. He

I wanted flush mount in the bumper but that seems to be a no go. I'm gonna tie it into the new trailer harness when it arrives. Looking at all my options to make it look classy. The panty dropper has to look good under the skirt and her rear. Lmao

Flush mount wouldn't work to well because of how brittle and thin the factory bumper cover is... hence why mine is gone.

You could flush mount in the fenders below the tail lights perhaps. Maybe not the square LED lights but instead a couple of round ones or something? Kinda like these:

There are a few slightly different styles, too. Actually, you may even be able to mount them in the rear door down low in the corners. Just a couple ideas.

They make flush mount squares. I didn't tie mine into the trailer harness. Just tie them into the reverse lights themselves.

I did the same. It shouldn't cause any issues because these LED lights are extremely low draw.
