As soon as I can I'll get you the link to mine. My reverse lights will be rock lights on the rear bumper... When I get one

The lights are not plug and play. I will draw up the diagram I used. However if you know basic vehicle electrical you can get it.

As for what to pick. It's all up to you. Brake lights must be red. Turn signals can be red or amber. Clearance lights must be amber in the front red in the rear of the vehicle. Reverse must be white lights.
As for the combinations it's up to you. My brake lamps are the lower LEDs and my turns are the uppers. They both have constant power. However like they are supposed to get brighter when activated(brake or turn).

Here's mine right now in Sin City.

They are just trailer lights you can buy any kind online or hit up the chrome shop in any big truck stop if you live by one.
