laredotexas,
Excellent pix and very cool b/u lights. Where did you purchase them?
Are your LED tails the ones that jazejeff is selling or are they the esky conversion?

Cooool. I have an extra set of b/u lamps wire into my blazer and mounted on the hitch, but I have to say, I've never seen HIDs in the backups!! Where did you mount the ballasts?

Just a bit of triming to the base of the bulb in order for the legs to pop in.. not much really.. the bulb will hold it self.. but not enough to keep moisture out.. so the silicon helps on that.. other than that it all straigh foward... wires where connected to the OEM harness and that is it.
