I've never been happy with how much light comes out of the reverse lights on my LX470. It just doesn't illuminate enough for me to see anything. I've tried multiple bulbs in the stock housings and nothing is working well enough. The rear camera is almost always nearly blacked out in the evenings and also doesn't give me much to work with.
I came across these Rigid lights:

Ignite | Flush Mount Diffused Flush White Black | Rigid Industries
The reviewers on Amazon say they pack a pretty big punch for such small lights.
My idea was to mount these to between the license plate and the existing backup lights. The idea would be to just tap into the existing wiring and run both the bulbs that are already there and also the little Rigid lights.
If I total screw it up, these license plate pockets are a few hundred to replace, but I would feel more confident drilling some holes into this piece than anywhere else on the body.
So what does the collective wisdom of this forum think?
