Default Reversing lights.

Having owned the D2 for a year and a half now, I find very few things that I think 'that could be better' or 'I don't like that'. Generally, it seems to be a great motor all round.

However...... we're currently undergoing a major project at home, meaning there's a skip, building materials and a toilet where I normally turn round outside my house. This means I now reverse all the way down my shared drive, about 60metres ish with a sweeping bend. Big overhanging trees and my neighbours reluctance to spend money on electricty mean it's pitch black and I can't see a blooming thing! I've tried my rear fogs and dabbing the brake lights helps, but basically the D2 reversing lights are terrible. Anyone else feel this way? Any suggestions to correct it? I won't spend much money on it as the drive will very soon be back to normal. I've also invested in a large new PIR security light for the front access.
