Added these lights for added visibility when reversing, backing up the trailer, backing up the RV and general night help! I used the factory installed up lifter switches in the F250 series, and was able to utilize the low/high beam by using 2 of the switches. I plan on adding some type of side lights for entry/exit/kid loading in the near future, but it might be some type of LED strip.

Let me know what ya’ll think! Also, other ideas for the switches.

I do have a Yakima rack on the way to add above the roll top and thinking of adding some surround lights there as well.

Switches are handy. I did the same thing with my lights except high on the headache rack.

Yea, just got a Yakima Rack for on the Retrax cover, so i’m thinking of running out some power to the rack but make some whips to tie into it, just in case i adjust/remove the rack I’ve still got the accessory.
