Can't find rear worklight wires for Kubota M tractor

[varmint]

You may be glad you did it at some future time when it comes in handy. No big deal, price was right, and I think rear lights are a useful, if seldom needed, addition.

OK, found wires and good to go. They are on the outside of the fender and taped together. They really could be either on the outside or inside of the fender and I'll bet they are found both ways. I fed mine through the fender and plugged into the light. I drilled the back of the light for a switch and whole installation doesn't look that different from original.

I'm not big on all this lighting because I rarely work at night but I guess it's better to have it and not need it than not have it and need it.

Good install, looks great! Was there a ground wire along with the hot one?

I agree about it being better to have light and not need it. I used the ROPS lights once during the day to light a trench I was digging with the BH to replace a water line. It was afternoon in the shade and difficult to see what I was doing. You never know when it will come in handy.

Yes, two wire with pigtails. I had to wire in the switch, put pigtails on the light wires, drill the hole for the switch and that was it. Kubota is great to give the rear work light wires on their tractors. Makes life a lot easier.

I understand. I added a rear light and in 4 years have only used it once.
