I was looking into tucking some whelen hide aways in the reverse light area and the front turn indicator area. Would love to see photos when you guys get yours installed.
I am a stickler on safety and visibility. I'll be using mine as a set of hazards on steroids. Too many idiot drivers with their heads up their *****. I want to be seen if I am sitting off the side of the road.

the highway department in Minnesota likes to put strobes in the reverse lights on their official use only F-150's, looks pretty neat. I don't know if you can legally do that to civilian trucks though.

If you start using clear or colored (red/blue) then the 5-0 may take notice and give you some slack. Again I don't know every state law, just my experience.

Reverse light isn't hard, just mare sure your centered.
Cargo was harder as very tight fit in truck body. I had to "convince" the cargo light to for after added the light heads.
I can send you pics of you need.
Good luck and Show pictures when your done.
