These draw such little power. All I did was tap them into my existing reverse lights and they work great.

Just a couple minutes.
I was worried about mine getting crushed when crossing a creek or low spot because my hitch drags but so far they've been out of the way, even the times my hitch has dragged since installing the LEDs.
How did you wire them to the reverse lights? On the video he just says this is where you wire it but never actually goes under the truck and shows a video doing it. Im not the most electronically skilled so do you think the wiring will be too difficult?

Yes, you can do this!
On the trailer light plug cover, below your bumper, there's a diagram of which contact point works what. Look on the back of the plug and you'll see the wires coming in to the pointS. So you find the reverse wire and ground wire. Then using the splicers that come in the kit you just "snap" the red wire to the reverse wire and the black wire to the ground wire.
Trust me, I'm no electrician or mechanic but I did this with ease. Everything's in the kit and the video will walk you right through it. If you get hung up just email them and they'll help you. I had to ask a question and they got back to me within the hour.
Good luck

Thumbs up Aux. LED reverse lights

Ya .... the 1 thing I DID NOT LIKE about my new 14 F150 5.0 Scab was the woefully inadequate back up lights.
So I ordered a set of 18W LEDs much like the OPs from HERE for $49,90 all in.
Very good hardware and wiring harness's. Lights seem to be well built/rugged.

Finished installing them this morning and I can already tell there is going to be a BIG difference when I shift into reverse at night now!
