Custom tail light idea.
I have the tiger shark rear bumper with 4 red and clear Euro taillights. I was curious is there a way to make the clear portion of the taillight something similar to switch backs. The bulbs will illuminate clear only when in reverse like normal and but would blink amber when using the turn signals. Seems like it would be easy but not sure how the wiring would work. I got the same pigtails for the front switchbacks ordered to give it a try. This has not been done that I can find but would be neat in my opinion. The red portion of the tail lights will just be for brakes and parking lights while the clear will illuminate clear only while in reverse and flash amber when using the turn signals. Any ideas on how to make this work?

cool idea...should be the same amp draw as the fronts...I believe you could just plug in some switchbacks, assuming the socket was suitable, modify the wiring, and see what happens, no?
