Thanks TAP, and I'm sure I speak for all of us that we appreciate your support to the Forum. It just turned out that I was ordering a bunch of stuff from Amazon already, and just added the Duallys to my order.

I did this install last December I ran wires straight from the battery into the cab to the center console the back out of the cab and ran it with the main wire harness of the truck. Then I went in between the bed and the frame right behind before the spare tire to get gets light on on the opposite side and mounted them to the shackles. They are not connected to reverse lights at all so that way I can turn them on only when needed or if I'm trying to setup a campsite or bonfire party

For clarification, when you ran the wires back out of the cab, where did you route them? Down from the engine bay, and then to the main wire harness (the one along the frame)? Just trying to get ahead of this and plan the install. I want a switch in-cab so I need to figure out how best to route the wires. TIA.

Thanks. I'd love to tack weld 'em but I don't have any welding equipment. Is there another option for security? I've seen the "spanner" set that Rigid sells but they seem to only be for the light bars, not Dually/D2s.

Can anyone put up a picture of what wire(s) they tapped into for the lights to come on with reverse? Going to install some pods I had laying around tomorrow and I just want them to come on with the reverse lights!
Also, does anyone think the two pods will cause any issues if they were just wired into the reverse wire for the trailer harness? No relays or fuses or anything? They are Digidiode but pretty well same specs as Rigid light/power wise.
