As such, I'd be inclined to spend $20 on one and transplant the 'guts' into your application. Switch your halogen sockets to small LEDs and w/ some simple wiring / soldering (or even crimp connectors) the mission should be accomplished.

That said, 'compliance training' with Party W in household is explicitly not included in any kit. So you're on your own entirely there... (said one with tongue firmly planted in cheek whose better half just backed her Macan S into his track car hauling trailer at way end of driveway yesterday AM despite three mirrors, 8" back-up camera screen and those 'annoying' beeping sensors she wishes could just be turned off )

Good luck
