So I bought this pair of LEDs for my ATV and when I was thinking of how I would mount them the idea hit me. These lights fit perfectly under the bumper using the mounts the lights come with, and the factory bolt under the bumper.

These lights are extremely bright, and at the time I bought them on Amazon they were $26. Now they are around $35.
They are definitely worth the money. No moisture issues, and they look awesome under the bumper.

This is how I routed the wiring.
The positive is connected to my aux switch 3, and I routed the wire down through the frame using a hanger.

After that was done I soldered it together to the positive wire from the light, and used a ring connector to fit over a bolt that's bolted to the frame right above it to connect the ground wire..

I'm very pleased with these lights and are extremely useful for lighting a dark area when I'm backing up, in the deer woods, or camping.
It's also an awesome way to get those tailgaters off your back!

Has anyone tied these into their reverse lights (hitch wires) in addition to an aux switch? Just wondering if that would cause a problem, as I'm not an electrician.

I would like them on when I reverse, but have the option to turn them on anytime I may need them.

I don't see how that would work because when you would turn on the aux switch it would power the reverse lights as well. Then again I'm no expert auto electrician so I may be over looking something.
