That's what I may need to do to fit the lights with the AMP Research bed step

Yep, see the lights I installed in post #31 of this thread. I installed the AMP bed step last weekend and had to remove the driver side light cause it was in the way.That's what I may need to do to fit the lights with the AMP Research bed step
Has anyone tried this option using heavy duty 175-250 lb. zip ties? Is this bracket sufficient or should I look at buying a heavier duty option?Finally got around to installing my Baja Designs S2s for backup lights. I really struggled with the low light of the factory backups - tasks like hooking up my boat or even backing into my driveway left me struggling to see clearly.
Instead of the usual Baja Designs bracket, I used 4" stainless steel hose clamps and attached them to the receiver hitch crossmember. I probably could have painted them or found coated hose clamps, but for my use - they are totally fine. The distance is just right, they are pretty protected, and they work great at night.
Hope this might help someone else.
Also, forgive the dirty Tremor - it's been a monster year of snow/dirt/crap weather and it's way overdue for a good handwash soon.

Figured I’d update my post above. I’d bought the lights mentioned above and linked below.Yep, see the lights I installed in post #39 of this thread. I installed the AMP bed step last weekend and had to remove the driver side light cause it was in the way.
I bought some Amazon 3” LED pods (looks like a knock-off of a BD light maybe?) and just installed them this evening. Tested them out when it got dark and they’re probably not gonna cut it for long. I like BRIGHT backup lights.
I’ve got Diode Dynamics SS3 Pro fog lights and would be tickled to death to have a set under the rear bumper, but not for $300. I may break down and do it at some point tho.
