Ok. This is for plowing. Yes we have a real Winter here in the Northeast. I wanted to see better backing up when I plow my accounts. So I made this light hitch assembly out of scrap and my buddy gave me the lights. I had a relay and wires that I will adapt to the 7 pin trailer harness. The only thing I had to buy was the trailer connector from West Marine and it was the cheapest thing I bought from them all for 5.29. Yup that is all I have into this thing. I will also be making a protector for these so when I back into a snow bank I will not smash the lights. This will also serve as a hitch step and a protector for my trailer plug. I might also put an LED stop light I found in my box of stuff (last pic).

That's pretty cool tj I could use something like that for backing up, because my windows are blacked out...simple yet effective...those are some nice looking welds too
-

Dude, AWESOME workmanship and forethought, as always. :banghead: Damn I'm jealous, lol.
