Because electricity is well beyond my skill level and I didn't want to spring for a flush mount, I had my guy do a simple install with some light cubes while he was adding remote start. The search is mounted next to my steering column.
When backing up at night, it is much easier to see where I am going.
Looks like much better light back there compared to stock lights. I will say however, being up in northern NH, when we get into the heart of winter, backing into snow banks, I've ripped off 3 pairs of lights where you have them mounted. Finally got fed up and dove in to a flush mount in the bumper to hopefully avoid that situation in the future. Wiring was very easy, grounds to two bumper bolts, and power connected to trailer harness reverse lights so no switch necessary!
And that's why I went with in-bumper ones lol... the snow is evil on things that protrude (day 2 of having my truck I ripped off that stupid wind deflector thingy under the front when it got caught on a snow bank)

If snow is a concern, I definitely recommend going with a flush (or at least lower profile) mount.
Luckily, I'll be leaving the Northeast for the South next Summer.
