Spare tire mounted backup light

I switched to Transit wheels and in doing so, I had to modify the spare tire mount a bit. I modified it a bit more this afternoon and mounted an extra LED flood light I had from a previous headache rack project I did for my Dad. Nothing too crazy, but these little guys are incredibly bright so it should work out fine for a reverse light.
Some tubing and flat stock welded to the modified factory mount:

Flood light bolted on while maintaining clearance around lug nuts:

I still need to do the wiring but that should go quick once the plug shows up.
