Rigids for Reverse
I just bought some Rigid SR-Q Surface mount LED's to supplement my backup light situation. What is the best way to wire these if my truck has Bliss, LED's as backups already, and tow identification ( I thinks that's what it is called, knows when a trailer is connected?)?
It would be nice if they came on when I put the truck in reverse and I would also like to have a switch in the cab to manually turn them on when I am loading trailers at night. Any help would be appreciated. I have a '17 Lariat 5.0 if that helps. Thanks!

Run a two position switch to a relay. Run one from a 12v source powered by the ignition, and one from the reverse hot. Here's a wiring diagram I made years ago for a fog install over on DodgeTalk.
welp...it wont attach on my phone. Here's the thread.

Check out my install of SR-Q2's using a switch in the cab and a relay under the hood. I think it's exactly what you're trying to do. Thread can be found HERE.
Feel free to shoot me any questions about the wiring if that's not clear.
