Do you just want reversing beepers? Auto shops should have them. Otherwise check electronics shops for 'sonalerts' and wire one in parallel with the reversing lights.

Are you aware that you can buy a replacement reversing light globe that beeps?

Supacheap, about 20 bucks. Quality is very iffy though, the one I saw had the bulb and beeper just soldered onto a bulb base, wires hanging out all over the place.

Probably better to get a little buzzer, double sided tape under the chassis or behind the indicator if truck, wire in parallel with the reverse lights. You can get crimp connector things that piggyback straight onto the wires if you don't want to resolder.

I thought they were a damn good idea when I first saw them. Automotive spares shops shopuld stock them or perhaps largish autoelectrician places. I think the 4wd shop in Albury was where I spotted them, but I would think that most of the larger parts/accessory shops would have them - and google is always worth a try

I hooked an $18:00 unit I bought from Dick Smith or where-ever in line with the reversing lights. The neighbours on either sides of my property who have young children constantly say how much safer they feel. I have a 6' high brush fence and I believe that the 'beepers' should be mandatory for people who have my type of drive-way. Robby
