Additional Reverse Light

[mateomarco]

Hi mga Sir..Need your advise..Especially now na madalas umuulan, hindi sapat yung oem reverse light ko to see what's behind..Ang hirap lalu na at malakas ulan at madilim tapos hindi kapa familiar sa daan lalu na sa akin na gala kasi im into rent-a-van business..I was thinking kung okay na maglagay ako ng additional reverse light tulad ng aftermarket fogs, etc para lang makatulong or mas maganda talaga at wala akong choice but to do the old fashion way of baba-tingin sa likod-then reverse para makasiguradong walang tataman sa likod..BTW, My ride is a 99 and 2002 starex LWB..Badly need your inputs! TIA!

it's really up to you. pwede naman kung sa pwede maglagay. kung nahirapan ka talaga eh di maglagay ka especially pangkabuhayna mo pala yun van. so sakit sa ulot makabangga or mabangga sa pader.

isang option na imbes na naka wire kasabay ng backing light ay may separate switch na lang para i-on lang pag kailangan.

actually ako rin ay gustong magpalagay. kailangan ko lang magpasadya ng bracket bilang kabitan.

Thanks sa advise nyo sir! Nagustuhan ko yung idea na pwedeng may switch para may control...Any idea yung anong aftermarket light na magandang ikabit? any specific model or brand to consider? naiisip ko lang na familiar is bosch brand pero reg model, wala talaga ako alam! Siguro budget max is 3K? Thanks!

The problem with having a manual switch is that, there's a possibility that it can be inadvertently left on when you're not in reverse. This will be unsafe for drivers behind you.

I suggest that it be tied up with the OEM reverse lamps using a relay so the rear aux lights are on only when you're in reverse.

Another option worth considering is to install rear sensors.
