    The remote is wired to the bed lights only and the bed lights would still have a bed mounted switch.

    The hood lights have a push button switch.

    Do to liability I do not provide any install instructions that tie in to factory wiring.

    The pricing is mainly set by the cost of the LEDs, kit material and shipping costs. When I re-order lighting again it will probably go up.

    I am also interested in the bed lights with push button for long bed and maybe the hood lights also. Could you send instructions and do I just request on here to order a set or should I do it through your website?

    is it possible to only get lights for the top of the softopper? i saw the bed rail/combo kit, but dont think i would need the bed rail kit.

    im not a complete moron when it comes to car mods but im by no means an expert. it seems like the kits come with really detailed instructions, but im trying to decide if i want to go this route or think of other options for lighting. cant decide if i want to go a more professional look or the lazy/easy route. is it possible to send me a summary of the install process? the "just do it right" methodology is telling me to buy your kit. thanks!!

    Has anyone tested how long it would take the under hood lights to kill a good battery? haha.

    Just curious

    The under hood lights are on a manual switch and can be turned off if needed. I have left my bed lights on for 6 hours with no effect on my battery.

    I know they'll last a long time. I left my LED dome lights on for 24hrs and had no issue starting my car. And a friend of mine left his Suzuki Every interior LEDs on for 10 days, struggled a bit, but he said it still started. Just wondering if I get into trouble in the middle of no where, how long will these lights work for?

    I'm guessing several days worth, but didn't know if anyone had left them on long enough to kill the battery.
