P1000m3 Reverse lights mounting options?

[TractorMan]

I like that but I have the hard rear panel so that's not an option.

Mounted mine using the same bolts that mount the hard roof to the roll cage in back. I used Auxbeam cube lights and just elongated the hole in the bracket that came with the lights with a dremel tool so I could use the 2 screws that hold the roof on hold the light on also. They are below the top of the roof line and provide light to back up even when the bed is up. Very solid mount also, no vibration issues. I believe if you tried mounting them to just the plastic roof they would vibrate too much.

The P1000 is different but I wish I had done that on my P700.

Where is everyone mounting their reverse lights? When the bed dumps the options are very limited. I'm thinking on the top bolts that hold the plastic cover on the muffler. Surely it doesn't get too hot there since its plastic. What say you?

I had the two front outside factory roof brackets that I remove to mount small 4 inch wakeboard speakers I used them to mount lights makes a handy way to loosen and aim them

I used the net mounts on the ROPs.

I tried putting mine there but the tailgate hit the lights when I let it down.

Especially with the three seater I'd consider these. They will mount flat and come with roll bar mount. They are VERY easy to mount and won't get in the way. They are solid aircraft aluminum with a very thick glass cover so they will take ANY abuse and the lens will never get scratched by mud. You could very easily mount to your muffler cover but stuff in that area gets dirty quickly. These shine at 90 degrees and are as bright as the cubes because even being 15 watts it's three 5watt however it's spread more so not as intense. Last time I just used 4 of these and you wouldn't believe the light. These would give maximum mounting options. The 3 has less mounting options then the 5 but I'd suggest two under taillights,one muffler cover and somethings up high in the roof or on the roof so your hard panel can mount. If you're keeping your hard panel on at all times then simply mount two more of these up on the back but I'd still mount a couple in back. Then hook all to reverse switch and rocker switch you'll be happy it's nice to back up and not miss anything

I bought these. As CP said... these are built better than expected.

Looks pretty indestructible. Solid and sealed.

Lots of options on mounting locations.
(I'll take a picture soon).

Installed mine this week too. What a pain.
If you just want it to come on every time it is in reverse, day or night... Thats easy.
But if you want to control it on your switch panel with a automatic option.... OMG. PITA for sure.

Right in the middle of the rear ROPS.
TSC mounts $14 are AWESOME
