Here’s a quick install video I did for a rear chase/reverse light setup. Hope it helps or gives some ideas.

And a few pics taken during the install:

Looks good! I've been doing research on a reverse light for my upcoming Bronco and you posted this thread perfectly. Thanks!

Looks great! Could you take a close up picture of the light (off) please? I've also been looking at options for a reverse light.

Thanks!

The Rough Country Bumper has spots to add these lights as well. They are a big help in many situations.

Although I have no reason for strobing rear lights, this just looks awesome, haha.

If you don't mind me asking, why did you add them? Do you need them for work, or are you just flexing to your friends?

Hey, just thought I'd chime in on your reverse light.... an easy fix is your 7 pin trailer plug has reverse in it. Splice into it and ground the light. Done!

Typically these are used when off-roading to help the person behind you in your crew follow you in low light situations.

My wife has two pod lights installed in her back bumper. They may be a little low for chase lights but they work great as reverse lights. I don't have a good picture of them but you can see them in this one.

Not bad - I was thinking of putting a light here too, but would opt for a small LED bar instead of two pods. However, now that I have a swing-out hitch extender that blocks this, I'm glad I didn't go that route now

They serve multiple purposes.
1) Strobes help when people are behind you on a dusty trail and visibility is low, so they don't run into you.
2) If someone is tailgating you, strobe em.
3) They're fun at parties.
4) The solid light helps when trailing in the dark and you need to reverse out of an obstacle.
5) They're great at parties.

I have the Baja kit, but @The_Axeman's kit is quite nice as well.
My only qualm would be that you'd have to use 2 aux switches, but that's about it.

Will do - but I’m working a 24hr. Here’s a pic from Amazon as well as the link. Mine are the flush mount version.

Good thinking! I chose not to have it on my reverse light though. It’s quite blinding. I’ll only use it when nobody else is close by.

Others have answered - but I primarily use them - as mentioned- when on a dusty road in a convoy. However - they’re great in a snow storm or heavy rain on the highway to keep visible.

I added them per NORRA chase light requirement - safety. Used aux 6. Blinding at night for sure but they work cutting thru the dust during the day. Would work great with foam guns, whistles, and tequilla shots too but that was 20 yrs ago for me...
