    if you have a switch with 3 prongs on the back(they should be labeled in some way or use a volt meter). 1 prong goes to 12v power(you can tap a wire at the ciggy lighter or anywhere else with 12v power), 1 prong goes to ground(again you can tap another accesories ground) and the last accesorie prong(always in the middle) goes to your lights.

    edit: forgot your fuse lol, you can buy wire with a fuse holder already in it. you can use that on your 12v side.

    Sounds good. :) Thanks.

    Oh how about a "finder's fee" for the person that hooked you up with your new tenant? I heard they made those Metal Miller devil horn emblems in Barcelona red. :D

    i like the idea that these are thin and you can put them in places like this but its not a good look for your fascia imo. Plus the direction of light output with them mounted like that won't be optimal. With light bars you want them mounted horizontally. What kind of mounting hardware is included? Maybe in the void in your lower bumper valiance?

    yeah I thought about the lower bumper but I wanted them a little higher than fog lights. And If I do get an aftermarket bumper I wouldn't want to have to find another place to put them.
    also I did a quick hook up to the battery last night with them and they are more like flood lights and dont put out a beam pattern of normal lights. I really couldn't tell any shape to the light pattern.

    Wow, thanks!! I'd really appreciate that!! :)

    I eventually will go off road. When I get my lift. And lockers. I talked to Eric that day we went out about your sliders. I like the ones with the kick ups but it won't work with my AC. :(

    Hey thanks you guys!! I worked today, had to wake up at 230am. Came home and made a pot roast dinner. Chris came by my work and dropped off the sticker that MJ sent :) Other than that, just an ordinary day. Going to bed soon.
