High powered reverse lights in rear bumper

[AJeepZJ]

AJ I am not sure. I have aftermarket LED housings, but they use the stock revers wiring and socket. The seller on eBay that I bought from doesn't have any left, I bought his only set.

ah, I see - Well I'll be keeping an eye out. I know there are several vendors selling LED bulbs that fit in the stock sockets of the tails for brakes and signal - I was just curious if there were any particular brand or vendors people prefer out there.

When mine come in, I'll let you guys know if the ebay seller I bought from ships the right ones.

I don't even think they stick out 1/4" maybe 1/8" at the most. because that rubber bezzel or whatever, if installed correctly, (you know... taking your time and carefully etching away plastic as I did, Sal).... It will actually be pretty flush with the bumper. And the led case itself, when installed in the rubber ring, will be flush with it. It don't stick out that much, haha.

I think im leaning towards the PT series lights that are in my first post. I just think the clear lens will look really clean on there...

But looking at the dimensions of the grommet, it looks like they'll stick out almost 1/2..

Here is a link to my build thread on JG where I did a quick write up on them:

Yeah... after you read a certain number of threads they don't let you see anymore. Guess i've lurked there too much...

Back on topic though- i'd like mine to be almost flush as well so im a bit worried about the size of that grommet. I'd hate to spend all the money and cut up my bumper and have it stick out really far.

It looks like the grommet I have. When you push the light in it snaps into the grommet and seats the grommet into the bumper. I think this one will do the same all the ones I've seen look similar.

Mind snapping a few close up pics of yours? Maybe one showing how flush they are from a close-up side view?
