The best and safest way to wire high wattage external lamps is with the use of a relay, this keeps all of the juice going through the switch and possibly starting a fire.

I got 4 high amperage toggle switches mounted 2 on each side of my cigarette lighter. It's tight but enough to not interfer and it looks clean and its out of the way. I'll try to get a pic later this evening

Thanks for the help. I do have a relay i went looking and found some cool options for the switch. I went to a local Pep Boys and found some good options for the switch.
The have a heavey duty 4 switch flat panel switch that will let you run 4 diffrent sets of lights and the have some really cool LED switches that use 3m tape to hold them in place. The switch looks like a tear drop and i can put the button next to my toggel to adjust my foot pedels. and no cutting of the dash ( cool) I will try to get some pic posted. Any one else seen any good switches????
Thanks
