    Yeah they will be used in the rear once I get my HIDX lights for up front. Will come in handy in winter when I'm loading/unloading my sled from the trailer an what not.

    Also be good for tailgaters and people who forget to turn their high beams off when coming up behind me.

    Wiring up a switch and tying them directly into the battery.
    That way I can flick em on for a minute or two without the truck running.
    It's a simple enough task. Hardest part will be finding a place to put the switch.

    Probably take about an hour start to finish.

    No headache. Win.

    Ok so I'll be doing the lights today. Trying to think of a place to put the switch is difficult...
