Just picked up a 2004 truck, ordered the baseplates, now what is the best way to set up lights?
On my jeep I added a bulb in the light housing and ran wires through the frame, that worked pretty good.
Magnetic lights?
Something like these glued on the bumper? http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-LED-15-Slimlin...519ff5b676

Later on I'll probably carry a RZR in the back with the tailgate down so need to keep that in mind when I add lights.

I think the bulbs in the housing work great. Some of the wireless light bars are good. I have just finished my M/C rack for the RZR and will be trying this weekend.
I would look at these, they would be much easier to use;

Just finished installing the Demco baseplate and lights. I ran wire along the frame to the rear then hooked them up to these lights I put on the bumper: http://www.ebay.com/itm/190726345998?ite...60&vxp=mtr

These are the waterproof flexible LED strips that attach with 3M tape. But they include a controller (sealed so I couldn't peek) so you have brake/turn/tail/backup lights.
