    Hi everybody!

    Cross posting this, but let me know if not allowed: So for BF I got a deal on a pair of diode dynamics ss3 pods and bought the harness at the same time, and then bought an OEM switch from Air On Board.

    My issue with the install is my lack of knowledge with wiring, and I wanted to ask you guys just which wire goes to which. On Reddit they have the concept of ELI5 or, “Explain Like I'm 5” and that’s what I’m asking y’all to do! haha

    And here’s what I’m working with:

    DD harness with included toggle switch

    Instructions included with both

    So I get black to black, and blue to the drivers side fuse, but the other two with the double and single red wires on the harness? And do I need to cut and splice into the harness wires or just do the switch wires?

    I know tons of people have done this, and found videos using Cali Raised switches (although none of them actually showed the wiring up close for someone who’s never wired up lights before).

    Thanks again for your help!

    Are you running these as replacement fogs or ditch lights?
