Under Frame Lighting the Inexpensive Way
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Nothing’s cheaper than what you already own, so here’s how I decided to repurpose used trailer tail lights for a custom touch in my truck.
I’ll show you how I planned out my undercarriage lighting, installed stainless brackets, wiring, and how the final results look.
The only costs involved for me were the brackets & a roll of sealed wire! And, of course, my time. I soldered every connection in the hopes that this project will be trouble-free for years; not just months… time will tell.
The wire I used is available at NAPA Auto Parts.
The stainless steel brackets I used are made by Grand General and are available on Amazon.
Are there cheaper ways to do this? Maybe. Are there faster & easier installations? Sure. But this is how I chose to do mine, hopefully this helps you decide how to tackle your next project!

Do more of these how to’s your a great teacher
Your truck has come long way since I started watching your videos. It is a cool looking ride.
Smart using used lights. Those are always destined for the trash because they don’t match or a few of the LEDs are burnt out.
Looks sharp.
Super job looks great congrats
That truck is too cool man. 😎
Very nice,many years ago when I was a teen I did some under my pick up I used a mix of red and amber and wire them to separate signal flashers so it looked like flames under my truck but the police made me remove them :( Looked pretty cool at night though
Very cool Phil. Just enough glow.
The coolest way ive ever seen that done was with old motorcycle turn signals. The old school simple ways are always way cooler that store bought

My dad always used Honda motorcycle lights everywhere
That’s great man. Way too make big changes on simple things. Vary smart. Nice 👍
Thanks for the video and the idea
Awesome video Phil me and my husband Dan really enjoy them 😀
Looks cool!
Thanks for this idea 💡
Looks great I add 4 oval lights to the back of my bumper shining to the back wired on the bright side those lights were burnt out diodes they still shine great
Good job brother!!! Looks good.
Thanks for the idea but it looks good I like the way it turned out 👍
Love it.
Saludos y felicidades por tu kenworth!! Me gusta el estilo que tiene sencillo pero estilo antiguo!! Felicidades
Now some on the trailer would be awesome and look cool when raised.
The trailer absolutely needs some. I’d be finding a bunch of amber 4” lights keep the bumper scheme going to the rear of trailer and then 4 4” reds at the very back 💪🏼. At least that’s my plan on my ride currently. Sweet kwhopper brother !!!
Nice job 👏
Good idea
Nice!!!
Lookin good👍
Lookin real good I’ll say
Good job
Nice job
I put dual revolution on my rig awesome invention by TRUX two lights in one!
Great
Looks great, do you have any problems with the DOT where you go? Didn't know if there any certain color to stay away from. I bought a bunch of 3/4 inch lights from ebay bought too many for my interior. Blue and green ones
What are you doing to prevent corrosion between the frame and that cover you installed?
Any DOT issues? I heard you can’t have green, blue, and red in some states. I just installed some underglow to my flatbed bed. The color I decided to go with was amber. I used some watermelon lights
Watermelon lights would look awesome underneath too
Dodge Center eh? Went to highschool in kasson before moving back down to Iowa. Good looking truck driver maybe see you around I live bout hour from ya
Is that a sleeper?! Or a headache rack / tool box I couldn’t tell you have that tube connected to the back of the tractor…
Much much easier fabricating the harness off the truck
Nic3
Arnt they illegal?
Dang man that looks awesome. So weird how this works because if you put under glow lighting or rock lights on a pick up it reflects homosexuality in every state I’ve been in lol but for whatever reason on a semi It looks awesome I don’t feel any hatred in my heart at all. Weirdest thing.
It's not inexpensive considering the price of the brackets and the taillights. Also, using taillights you're limited to red, clear or yellow. The led kits are much cheaper and your color choices are many and can be changed with the flick of a switch.
