Need a hand with wiring.
Hey guys, I'm not a wiring guru so i thought i would post up here to see if what i came up with is OK or not. Let me know if anything is overkill lie the circuit breaker and relay ratings, that's just what the fuse block is rated for.
Abreviations:
BL - Bed Lightds
FL - Fog Lights
DL - Driving Lights
RL - Reverse Lights
any others you don't get let me know!
I have a couple of questions with wiring:
If i want to use a front and rear camera but only have 1 video input on the radio how would i go about doing that?
Also how do you wire in multiple carling switches? Do they each need an individual power source since most off them trigger relay's or do they need to be wired separate like i have above?
I'm trying to get all this figured to so i can just attack it when the time comes while also leaving space to add a few things later on like an air horn, compressor etc. I would like to have an idea of if i add the things previously listed how many would need relays and how the switches would need to get wired because I'm trying to keep this as clean as possible.

But what are you trying to wire about the switches? If its the illumination then they can all be wired together.
But each switch really only needs to trigger the power in the relay for whichever device is powering.
As far as the video, you'll need a switcher look up treys thread about his "T.A.G.S" where he setup 4 cameras on 1 screen.

The illumination I had planned to daisy chain them off the dash illumination wire. I was trying to show the power source that will go to the relays and trigger my lights. I wasnt sure if I could tap them all off one circuit since its just trigger wires, if tgats the case I could reduce the amount of circuits I need and only use 1 fuse block.
I forgot about Treys thread thanks!
