It's one of those little things you never really pay attention to, but is a cool feeling when you get them working.

Back in NY I needed the back-up lights to work, but the PO hacked all the wiring and put a floor shift in for the 'ole 3 speed. So I added a goofy looking toggle switch on the dash. I more than once (ok, many times) accidentally left them on

Then I moved to SC and NO MORE INSPECTIONS! So no more working lights, especially after I painted the bed, I didn't bother to hook them up

I had some free time while the primer was drying on the dash yesterday, so I ran a wire from my fuse box to my Lokar floor shift switch and then another one from the shifter switch to the back-up lights. I had to ground the lights and viola! Back-up lights!

Thanks for reading
