Hook it up together with the power wire. Then just strip your reverse lights and connect the wires respectively and you should be good to go. Remember to wrap up connections properly with electrical tape to prevent fire hazards.

good luck

I think that's illegal. Usually "strobe"-like illumination is only used on emergency vehicles like first-response, ambulances, fire trucks, police etc.

Back up lights for only when the vehicle is parked? And how are you going to hook them up?

they arn't my back up lights, but the reason I put them there is because on my shifter the revese lights sensor has moved so the b. lights only come on when I like hold it almost in park.. it's pretty shitty.. and I put them in the back up lights cause I liked the way it looked, I plan on putting some in the headlights as well.. probly my brights since I don't use them that much
