so i was going to wire my work light on the back of my truck into the rear fog lights i tracked down the yellow/red wire with gives power to the lamps and then realized the switch came on and the damn lights were not coming on.. so now im going to have to run a seperate switch for the rear lights. im thinking of running seperate switches for everything now. have 1 for the rear two lights, 1 for the fogs, and 3 for the 6 lights on the rack. that way i can fuse them all seperate and then if i only need 2 or 4 lights i can use those specific ones. still waiting for my damn brackets to come in so i don't think i will have it done in time for the pines this weekend. im thinking we should do a evening/night run into the pines in Janurary (hopefully with snow on the ground). who is down for that?

well thanks for the inspiration. i set mine up nearly identical to how your lights are. can't take credit when all i did was copy your picture. still have to get my second battery and a VSR installed if i want these things to run properly without putting me in danger of getting stranded.
