Got The LightForces Installed!
<HR style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #dddddd; COLOR: #dddddd" SIZE=1> <!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->
Well I installed my Smittybuilt Street Bar today and picked up a pair of Lightforce Striker 170's and am getting ready to install em. Heres my question, when I installed these on my 07 Tundra, I simply tapped into the High beam wire at the rear of the head lamp bulb connector, to pick up the high beam signal, as opposed to scrwing with the headlight switch. Will this work the same way on my F-150? Is there anything that would pose a problem with doing this? Would it be easier to tap into the multifunction switch ,and if so can someone tip me on some wire colors. Thanks.
Will have pics up tomorrow of new wheels, new tires, light bar and lights, hood deflector, and weathertech mud flaps! Love getting a new truck!!!!!

Thanks for the response, I know that I need to run off the battery for the wiring harness relay, was just checking to see if there are any amperage issues with tieing into the headlight wiring. Sometimes you run into that with single and 2in1 bulbs.

I run mine from the head light without any issues. I can't remember the wire color, but just check them with a test light. Also recommend the combo filter for the lights works much better than the spots. Check my profile for a look at what mine look like.
