How to relocate stock rear lights

HOW TO RELOCATE STOCK REAR LIGHTS

Credit for this goes to serialz_1. It is a cut and paste of the original TR post in order to try and retain the old technical content. If anyone knows serialz_1, tell this Rucker to come and claim their post!


There was a post not to long ago about a stock tail light relocation. I thought it looked like crap, but hey, thats just my opinion.

here’s what i did instead.

I took off the red plastic cover and drilled 3 holes on the black part of the tail light. (sorry for no pics while doing all this) After that I screwed 3 black screws through the black part of the tail light directly into the seat. then I put the red cover back on. It clears everything when I open and close my seat also.

I also installed some LED turn signals (I do NOT recommend smoked tinted ones like I have. My Ruck is just rarely driven)

I’m happy with it and it didn’t cost me anything so ++++++ !


here are a couple diff angles.

And I can’t think of how better to describe how I installed it then what I wrote in the first post. Sorry.
