Ever tried backing up in a dark parking lot or hitching up your trailer at night? Factory reverse lamps simply don’t provide enough light when function or safety is in mind. The Starkey reverse light wiring kit includes all parts necessary to wire your Truck or SUV for auxiliary lighting. Never hitch up your trailer or boat in the dark again! 

This product is great if you purchased a set of reverse lamps and just need a wiring harness and switch to finish the installation. Our wiring harness utilizes Deutsch DT Series 2-pin connectors. If you need connector pigtails for any other connection type, see Starkey part number 5012. If you are looking for a complete reverse lighting kit, see Starkey part number 5201.

Features & Benefits:

  • The included switch ensures you have full control over your auxiliary lighting system. The system can be activated with the switch anytime, even if the vehicle is off. If your vehicle is equipped with factory Upfitter/ Auxiliary switches, you can easily connect our harness to one of the open switches.
  • Optionally, you can also easily configure the lights to activate when the vehicle is placed in the reverse gear. This helps your vehicle get noticed when backing out of parking spaces, onto busy streets, and other high-traffic areas. It also makes hitching up your trailer, snow plowing, or other activities simpler and safer! This function is optional and is not required for the switch to function properly.
  • Installation requires no cutting of factory wires! In addition, the harness draws power directly from the battery to ensure that no strain is placed on the factory electrical system. This independent operation allows the lights to function with the cabin switch even if the vehicle is off.
  • A factory-style switch and all necessary wiring are included, simply add your choice of lights. Our wiring harness is designed to connect to Deutsch DT Series 2-way connectors. Pigtail connectors are available if needed (See Starkey SKU# 5012). Complete kit with lights also available – See Starkey SKU# 5201.

                2012 Ford FX4 crew cab

                Excellent product, harness is perfect fit. I have a 2012 Ford FX4 crew cab and had enough harness to spare. I did change the plugs for my lights to weather packs, since they are more available. Harness is simple and an easy install, the only part that takes some time is securing the harness under the truck, Will highly recommend this company to anyone looking at adding lights to their trucks.

                Excellent wiring harness!!!

                This is one of the best aftermarket wiring harnesses I've ever seen! The layout and construction are great, one of the best accessories you could buy if you were adding auxiliary lighting to your truck. The harness is extremely well built and comes with everything you need for the install except the tools and lights themselves. Highly recommend you purchase this harness if you need to install some back up lights.
