thats what I have set up on my vitara, purely set up as reversing lights, relay wired in on the switch circut, and a switch on the dash so that i can turn them off, no way to use em without reverse being engaged. Which i believe is the only really legal way with how directional they are set up cos when a mate that is a cop saw them he asked me that directly

Yeah that looks great, cheap and they work good.. As for the light bar I have a mate who knows a guy in the factory where they make them, if he gets them before branding on can save half the cost. Might look into it. Thanks guys

I strongly suggest LED, tht way you can leave it on without fear of your battery going dead.

hey those LED lights like dank's above - can you just splice that into the wiring on a reverse light? or with that overload the switch etc?

I have no experience with these but they look simple to install and should give awesome light output, if you don't mind the start up delay with hid. As for a worklkight search 15w led work on eBay.com.au. They're bright as and cost about 50 bucks..
