I know this doesn't amount to much for many people, but there might be a few that get something out of it. I had the KC lights on the front of my truck when I bought it and they were not hooked up. Being terrible at electrical stuff I didn't hold much confidence in doing it right. But, I mimicked what was done for the headight harness I bought from LMC and ran it all through a relay.
From relay to lights, from battery to relay is one "line" on the relay with the 30 being out to the lights. Then I just needed to run a switch from the dash to one of the other remaining relay posts and the other to ground. The switch then was 2 pronged and just needed a hot wire on one side. I put them next to the WTS block and think they can out pretty clean.

The lights are awesome and I see them on ebay for cheap so I totally recommend it if you live somewhere that you can turn then on once in a while.

For me, this was a big electrical success and now I need to do the same thing for the second switch which will run my trailer lights in the back.

Anyone else want to post their lighting systems?

 

nice work! and I do live somewhere where I can turn them on and actually desperately need to install some. trouble is, there are so many options out there and such wide variety in prices, I don't know where to start. and I don't really have any friends/co-workers into this sort of thing, so I haven't done anything.

mind sharing the model number, or ebay link - if you say they're plenty bright, that's good enough for me.

my plan is a pair up front like you've got, then 2 or 4 up high on the backrack that I don't yet own. they'd be on swivel mounts so they could be made to point forward or backward. then I could actually get work done at night outdoors away from the house.

 

Here's 4 used ones on ebay for a starting bid of only $25

Mine are a clear front lens and these look more like a fog lens. But they are 6 inch round lights and they are bright. You can probably even upgrade the bulb for something ridiculously bright!! The new kits run about $125 but that includes all the wiring and such. They'll look good on that ever-improving front bumper.

To think... I knew you when that bumper was just a dream in the garage!! lol

 

ha! its still mostly a dream! at least the brushguard and lights are still a dream. thanks for the info, though!

as I was writing my last post, I thought of a guy at work I could ask about off-road lights. just asked him and he said he has a spare set he never uses that he'll sell me. I may have to work on that brush guard sooner rather than later after all!

 

Good job Dan!

 

Sounds like you enjoy wiring about as much as me! Congrats on getting them working. I know nothing when it comes to relays..
