Review on Ultimate Universal XL Tow Hitch Cover with Brake Light in Black - No Logo/Emblem, Car, SUV, Truck Accessories by Carl Lipschultz

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The light is easy to install, I like that it reflects my taillights

Update 04/10/15: One of the lights burned out for a while and it took me a while to reach it. Substitute what I did today. After installing a new lightbulb and checking that it works, I find that it does nothing but glow when the light is on. It doesn't get brighter when braking and there are no turn signals. Bulb out and the same. I suspect it didn't work properly for a while, as did several other reviews that said it stopped working after a few months. It looks like I do too. I really liked it when he worked, he just didn't work for a long time. Original review: The light is easy to install, love that it reflects my taillights: running lights when my headlights are on, brake lights and turn signals. It's bright enough to give me that extra sense of security that people behind me can see better when I'm slowing down, stopping, or turning. Unfortunately, it uses incandescent bulbs, not LEDs. One feature I would like to add to this product in addition to the LED bulbs is a clear LED ring for optional backup lights. If for some reason it hits my bumper then this light will most likely break since it's all plastic. Even if it had a metal body, the lens would still break. It's not really a fault of the product because my hitch sits so far back, but if you tend to like banging in the parking lot I doubt the light will last long. Conclusion: I love it and would recommend it to others.
