Anybody know of an LED cube light small enough to fit in the receiver? I want to put a quick connect light in the hitch on my new bumper. The rigid D series lights are too big. Found this one online. Do the super duty's have a bigger receiver?

I do not believe there are any cube lights (maybe some weird china light) small enough to fit inside the 2x2" receiver. Which is why I created this 100% plug and play unit :)

Don't know if you've seen it, but here's the thread... http://www.fordraptorforum.com/f242/new-product-hitch-light-46095/#post950686

@HAYNES OFFROAD do you have a pic of this in your V2 bumper? I'm curious how far it will stick out. Also I did find that the Vision X Solo is a 2x2 and fits in the hitch perfect. Less light of course but looks clean. I'd rather have a setup like the one you offer but would rather not have it protruding past the top lip if the V2/V3 bumper.

You know I completely forgot about those little guys! I used those for my first set of backup lights!

Our prototype shown down below during fab was about 4½" out from the end of the receiver itself, I didn't really look at how far it stuck past the v2 bar... But I would say it was about 3" past.

With that said, our production model will only stick past the receiver approximately 3", which will mean on a V2 or similar, it should only stick past about 1-2", but I can grab some measurments once I have a production model built.
