Reverse/Back up lights for the panel truck
I am in the process of welding in new replacement panels on the old panel truck and sometime in the past, somebody decided to eliminate the old stock reverse/back up lights.
Has anyone replaced them with something different other than stock lights and lens. The old sheet metal is too far gone to even think about cutting them out and putting them back with the new sheet metal . I have found that the replacement panels were a great fit and eventually will help me get rid of all the rust on the rear end. Any pics or suggestions for a newer style reverse lights? Thanks go out to Mike @MGB Bump and grind and to GMC Pauls for the new parts!

Re: Reverse/Back up lights for the panel truck
I would look at the corner panels if you want to replace the back up lights.An alternative would be some lights placed under the truck wired as back-up lights.I will tell you a back up alarm(mine is off of a forking lift)wired in will let people know you are in reverse since siderear visibility is limited.That way they know you can't see them and they can walk out behhind you anyway.I guess they don't realize that that's why trash trucks have them.
