    Common HMMWV Questions from observers....

    May have been told that. When I put it in the car show at work I was questioned about it. I have the paperwork... its insured, it is legal, it is registered and plated... People KNOW everything about it even though they don't know what it is.

    Installing back up lights on the Humvee

    When I did mine I used the factory Reverse light switch and don't recollect where I pulled power but I ran it so that my backup cam comes on when I hit reverse as well.
