Thinking about getting back-up White nite lights from Geno's anyone have any experience with these or some other lights?

 

I looked at those also and decided to just mount some inexpensive fog lights hooked up to 7 pin trailer harness. I was worried about getting at the pin for the hitch as I tow alot.

 

i had them on my 02 taco. they were all right. all they are, is a couple of cheap lights in a plastic housing. i did have to put a bead of silicone around each light to keep the moisture out. after a year i took it off and installed a nice set of kc back up lights. they were much better.

 

Thanks guys! I knew someone would have experience with this, That's what makes this site so great!

 

i bought the white knights from genos too. they dont quite fit like they do in their catalog. I have the factory hitch like their ad says you need, my lights wont fit under the bumper like the photo. my hitch has an extra brace on the top of the tube preventing the housing from sliding under the bumper. my buddies truck doesnt have this brace, and would work great on his. they are great for backing though. When they break, I will probably toss them in favor of some KC's too.

 

ive used KC's in the past on my toyota and they were great, really need to get a set on the dodge soon, after the lift i cant see a stinkin thing at night.

 

They fit perfect on my class 4 hitch assy. I saw dodgezilla04 setup, the bracket between his bumper and hitch does make it more difficult to install. I wired and completed the entire install start to finish in less than 20 minutes. But, you may have to add d-rings to the chain holes because the bottom of the unit covers nearly the entire area where the chains attach. (It can be easily fixed with a drimmel tool if needed.) For the price, it does what it is advertised for.

 

I agree, I have a set of lights, wiring, relay, etc I bought to install, then saw the White Nights. They were a quick solution. When I break them, and I am sure sooner or later I will, I will install the other set. Until then they were easy install, work as advertised and do provide a lot of light. I can backup at night with the mirrors now.

 

I bought the Genos lights but after I saw how it looked on my truck I threw away the plastic housing and flush mounted the lights in the bumper next to the licence plate and moved the trailer plug next to the hitch. Mounted the three way switch between the tailgate and the bumper which makes it very hard to see but easily accessable.

 

You can go to Wal-Mart and pick up a pair of inexpensive H3 halogen 'tractor lights' (either round or square). Make up a bracket that bolts thru the rear bumper bolt bracket and run a wire to the cab/your own switch/battery. I've tried a few backup lights and these spreader lights are good value.

 

You mean like these??? $11 @ wal-mart....about $30 total....They're 55 watts each, and Im thinkin of going brighter since I had my windows tinted

 

Yeah, those look like the wally-world lights I have. Different switch and brackets, but hey, looks like they work and that's what matters!
