    You will have to Trim little bit on stock switches. With either a dremel or file.

    You might want to either tap power from either ac control or do a jump fuse or run a fused power line from battery but the only thing is it will always be on.

    Thanks MWOAP! :thumbsup:

    Mine are wired to my aux fuse block to the battery which means they always have power. They don't light up until I turn on the headlights, however. I might run a bypass switch to only have them lit whenever I want instead of with the headlights.

    Also, trimming for the Zombie switch wasn't bad at all. They are pretty close in size. A dremel tool makes it quick and easy.

    So the lights on your switches are on at all times? I thought the lights came on when the switch is on...

    Whatever is connected to the switch, has power all the time because it's run through the battery. For example, the Bed LEDs, I can power the LEDs in the bed on anytime whether the truck is on or off because power is constant from the battery. The blue LED that lights up the switch doesn't come on until the steering column switch is selected to "headlight mode".

    Ok, I had to look the switch up, I thought it only had 3 prongs on the back (ground, pwr in, and pwr out)

    What line or fuse did you tap into to get the lights to come one with your headlights? I'm assuming you seriesed them, what size fuse did you use.
