Default Rear working lights, not connected up?

I remember reading about with the newer
700 and 800s maybe the 500s too, that
the wiring is there in the back somewhere
for REAR WORKING LIGHTS hook ups?

Does anyone have pics, white papers, video
on how to do this and what do I need to buy?
Light bulbs, toggle switch, some type of wiring harness?

I know this has been posted on before, not re-inventing
the wheel, if you have the THREAD links that would
be great!

Much obliged!

I saw in one of your pictures that you bought the 3 headlight mod from quadovator.com...well they have a kit on there to set up the work lights it is $4 for the light bulbs and $16 or so depending on the toggle switch you want.

i just went to a auto parts store to get the switch and light bulbs and put them in as everything is right there and you just have to cut for the switch. just look at my pics and i show the back side of the pod to give you an idear what to look for.

Stendori, am I looking for the seperate YELLOW and WHITE wires in
the POD housing? I bought a two-way switch already for another application
and never used it. Nice pics, they are informative, thanks Stendori!

Okay not to stray to far away, but when buying the bulbs can I upgrade the wattage
in the back for the REAR working lights WITHOUT overdrawing on the battery either
now or when I decide to upgrade my to front headlights? Okay what I am saying is
I want to UPGRADE on both ends, would there be too much draw? If so, I will
only upgrade my two FRONT bulbs since its not that often I would use Rear
lights.

upgrade all 4... when you need the rears, turn the fronts off, when you need the fronts, turn the rears off..

just don't run them all at the same time... there should be no problems then
