They are a direct feed to under the dash behind the fuse panel. They can be used for accessories that you may normally fish wires through the firewall for. I've already used two of them to feed driving and fog lamps.

No, they are free at each end. You can attach an upfitter switch wire feed to it though, which is what I did.
