rear flood lights

I'm wanting to put some rear led flood lights on the Discovery, but don't really want them stuck up all the time - not that I think the intrusion into the airflow will affect the fuel consumption, but it's likely to be noisy. But I see little reason why I can't mount them on a rotatable clamp onto the prospeed rack - has anyone done anything similar and have photos of the install they can share - or links to a suitable clamp?

I'm pretty sure someone has mounted some inside the top tailgate, if almost up to the glass could use them with tailgate shut or open Thumbs Up

I rigged up something similar using the top mount of my ladder. Still haven't gotten around to finishing it properly though Rolling Eyes

Not quite the same, but I've got the ridiculously bright reversing lights from Advanced Factors & I just use them with the third button on the key fob - dead easy to fit & it helps the reverse camera out no end!

Cheap & cheerful, does the job, mulling over adding another & re-siting.

These are Nordic lights. Very good quality led's





Simply wired into rear fog light pins in towing socket. So no extra switches to fit

Yes they are very expensive!
Re wiring them in, just crimped two round pins onto the wires and push them into tow socket. When I need to use rear fig light I just pull them out. Last ones did 130k on old car no problem
