All right, all right, I give! It was photoshopped.
Uhh, no. Really: I went to Kachina Hummer in Scottsdale and picked up two rear marker lights for an H2 and installed them myself. I drilled a couple of holes in the plastic and ran the wiring down to the tail lights. I screwed up at first and connected the markers to the wrong wires. They lit up with the other marker lights but they flashed with the turn signals and they turned off when I hit the brakes. I found the correct wires to connect them to and buttoned everything up. Total install time was about an hour and a half with the learning curve. I could do it again in 30 to 45 minutes.
In retrospect, I don't suggest using the H2 lights. They're expensive and they're too damn big, they don't sit quite right because of their size. You can get a cleaner look at a fraction of the price by hitting up an RV store.
I'm going to see if the lights look any better if I move them over a little. If not, they're comming off and getting replaced on Tuesday with smaller ones that I found at a place here in Phoenix.
I've also figured out how to run the wiring to mount the three markers in the center on the back door but it's going to require more drilling and about two to three hours of labor. I'll probably hold off for awhile or else I'll get a body shop to do most of the work. To be continued....

Liar...you were going to Scottsdale to be a Rock Star. 
Arizona law states front tinting must transmit at least 33% light.

Yeah I'm married, and she loves tuna steaks too, that's one of her favorites. Veggies and fish, that's about all she eats. (Enter Drtyfn's perverted comment here) We could knock out the rear marker lights and hang out for a while the girls do stuff. I'll drop you a line when I know what my schedule looks like. I have a business partner coming in from the UK in a couple of weeks and a friend comming in from Ireland a few days earlier. It would have to be either sooner or later. What does your schedule look like?

Killian,
The lights look great and I like the photochopped ones in the back. Firm, I don't think he tinted the windows yet. Look at the drivers side. I think it is just the glare that makes them look tinted.

I did not realize that there were marker lights for the back. Looks great
I have not seen one in person yet. Are the back windows tinted at all from the factory? Can you not tint the from windows in AZ? That is why I assumed they weren't tinted.

Killian,
That must have been you I saw on 101 and 17 last night(?) Thursday at about 8 ? I could see the red markers 1/4 mile away. I sped up to get a look at what I thought was an H2 but it was a black H3 getting on to the 101 eastbound from 17. Quite the bad ass setup! When I get my red H3 from Lund I'll be asking for the same install. Is that where you got them? Firm asked you twice, are you ignoring us you tease?!

Az requires that front window tint be light enough for the police to see through. The rear windows can be as dark as you want.
