I don't HAVE to light the bulbs on the van? It's legal to NOT light the actual vehicle lights? Can I just mount generic trailer lights to my rear bumper, wire and go? Just in back? Anybody know about height and width requirements/restrictions? I'm planning to put a 2nd set of lights on an 8' wide bar on my roofrack-it's the only way I'll be able to see the Van tracking behind me. I'm willing to put some effort into this to make it good, as I'm going to go about 3000 miles. Oh, all four wheels on the ground.
