You don't need reverse lamps to pass a safety in Ontario , I just did one , no reverse lamps. Refer to section 6 of the attached document. Don't know what province you reside in.

I need to figure out what to do with this little problem. I need do have reverse lights to pass the inspection here in Canada.
Do any of you guys had to add some to? I need get pics and ideas on how to mount those in the back as well as the switch.

My Traveler had a "back up/work light" in the pass side rear door on it as part of the "package" the USBP ordered but I wanted something better. So when I made a new rear bumper I added them in. They work with the trans in reverse and I also have them wired to a switch.

I found a pair of new 6 volt backup lights for a case/international tractor. Figured they would be pretty durable. Wanted them out of sight but still functional.Picked up an old school looking switch to mount at the bottom of the dash.
Well I think I have struck upon an idea for reverse lights ..... I have a 700R4 Transmission in my 51 truck and think I'm going to acquire the reverse light switch for the Lokar floor shifter I have mounted to it.... The idea I came across is to remove the two intermediate rear bumper bolts on either side of the Willys script and replace them with white LED lights so therefore the reverse lights are mounted in the bumper and are not hanging down below bumper or bolted anywhere else... I don't know this is just an idea that I will have to play with and see what else I can come up with.
I think I posted this photo a while back in another thread but... I used a rubber bucketed tractor light on my pickup.. Mounted on a frame crossmember.. I need a rear light for backing @ night... I live in and travel areas without street lights (RURAL).. So, here's the photo.
I posted these on my thread, but they look so good I had to share here, too. [emoji3]
I took DiggerG's comment and ran with it. Top shifter with switch boss, running lights I believe, and some kickass LED's. My Willys Overland Script bumper attaches between the rear cross member and the Reese hitch.
