...forget the backup lights and find a vintage backup bell. These are the old bells big trucks had before they went to the electronic backup beeper. They bolt to the axle flange on the passenger side rear wheel. You can find them on ebay or check around bone yards or trucking businesses that have been in business for some years.
They get more attention than backup lights. Everyone within hearing distance will turn to see what the commotion is.
The cool ones had the hammers on the "outside" of the bell. Nicely exposed so all the kids can play with them at car shows. Drives everyone nuts.
