Default Back-up leds ideas

This is the back end of my truck. The back-up led’s in my lenses are not replaceable and I want to add more light when I hit reverse. Not interested in cutting into the bumper and I want something fairly low profile and looking as OEM as possible also don’t want to spend a million bucks. I’ve seen the LEDs that mount inside the hitch, more than I would like to spend. I am capable of fabricating my own mounts if necessary and I can do the wiring.

Show me what you have done to help. Give me some ideas.

Thank you, I am familiar with both of those. It’s not the direction I’m looking to go at this point.

I have this on mine. Tapped into the reverse light circuit in the passenger side tail light assembly. Between it, the BLIS clones LED reverse bulbs, its plenty of light for me.

I swapped the stockers out for Oracle's. Bright LED's and light up the back of the truck at night really good. Just swapped my BLIS sensors over and hooked them up. You can paint match the sides if you want for a custom look.

https://www.vleds.com/shop-products/lp-series/lpr.html. i've had the higher power one on two trucks. Very bright, and almost disappears until you go in reverse. Whole bunch of lumens. Cheap?, no. Worth it? Yes
