I fitted up a work light. It works fairly well and with the lens not being clear glass allows for a non intrusive light.
I think it's got a 25w globe.
I looked high and low for a nicer chromed backed rectangular one but gave up and settled on this Hella job.

I have a set of small driving lights that I bought from Supercrap. I plan to put one under the front bumper, and the other under the rear. The rear one as a reversing light, but also as a "f*ck off" light to anyone who tailgates, or needs to dip their headlights...

Fair enough about the F off light at the rear, but why only one up front?

I've got two 50W halogen lights as my reversing lights. $25 the pair from stupercheap. They are mounted either side of the van numberplate mount. As you can see, nice and bright!

don't have a decent pic without them on sorry but if you'd like one let me know.
