    It’s just me so I don’t watch you tube while driving. As long as I can hear music with Spotify. I really like that graphic equalizer, and the 10 inch screen. But I’m in no hurry and still shopping.

    I work at Hazelett strip casting.
    The old man developed a casting machine that’s cooled with water no cool down times. We are a small company but pennys come from our casters drink cans batteries etc. We do some pretty amazing crap for a small company.
    I have an amazing view of lake Champlain from my mill!

    Got this OEM Style switch from Guild Outfitters but no wiring schematic. I got my harness for my Lasfit Light bar (they forgot to send me the light bar fml) but I'm curious while I wait is anyone can tell me which wires go where when I splice this together.

    On / Off function and I would like the backlight on the switch.

    Thanks.

    haha dude I like looking at the lake not being in it! I’m better at sinking than swimming. The wife and I did a cruise told her if this sob bitch sinks I’m gonna be at the bar! Of course I thought we were sinking a lot.

    Hopefully the third wire is for a relay out. If not, you should wire this to a relay so the full power to the light isn't going thru the switch. I would assume red and black are power and ground and the yellow is the switched power out, but hard to tell without seeing everything. I didn't bother with rewiring the cheap switches with my setup, I just ran new wiring for my accessories and pushed them all thru relays. Simple wiring after that. This video is great if you're just getting started: 3 Easy Solutions To Wire Switches And Accessories On Your Toyota Tacoma

    Older pic of my aux setup, the relays are underneath:
