Where did you get the dually LED bulbs? I noticed you're from BC as well. Maybe a local supplier I can get them from?
From the pics they appear robbery attached to your hitch? Did you use preexisting holes?
I got these ones from customoffset.com my other sets are from Amazonia day I've had good luck if you go by the reviews.
As far as mounting goes I went off the suspension brackets, you just need to see what works best for your needs.
If you stand 10 feet behind the truck you can't even see the lights.

I was wondering as well. Also wondering about the cross traffic alert while in reverse if that would not be active as it would think trailer hooked up and disable bliss.
Wondering if running a switch would just be easier as that way you can control when you want it on.
There's not interference at all!
I just splices off the ground and the backup power, the cubes only run at 1.2 amps each.
The lights come on when you put it in reverse and turn off in any other gear.
I only have 2 feet of wiring to each cube, it doesn't get much eaier than that.
If you guys want I can take pictures of the wiring tomorrow

I wanted mine to be switched so I could turn them on anytime, not just in reverse. Good for hitching, bright light buttheads, as well as backing up.
My solution was about $20 off Amazon and I installed them so that was free other than the switch and relay. Total was probably under $40 installed.

Great job! This is exactly what I have been looking to do. Would you mind sharing details to the switch and wiring information as well as the lights you located on Amazon? Would greatl appreciate anything you could share.
When I have a trailer the bliss and back up sensors are turned off. So when you go into reverse the truck activates the lights from the trailer harness but you still have all back up sensors and bliss working???
Check out Rigid Industries. They're a bit pricier than some other brands out there but are very high quality. A couple of the cubes would work great for what you're wanting.
Rigid Lights come out of the same factory as two other major lightbar companies, from Nanjing China. Conducted some manufacturing business from the same place.
Oh and also did some business in the Philippines from a plastic forming company (both injection and blow) that makes all the coolers for Yeti, and the biggest cooler in the line was under $42
