    Just the directions for the bed kit, as for the hood kit its pretty simple for setting up. If you look to see how the inline fuse is setup for the bed kit its the same for the hood kit just make sure you have the switches setup correctly. I do remember you picked both switches for your hood kit as well

    The video linked on the first page was all I needed for the hood kit.

    Going dark for a while. To get some priorities straight. I'll check in once a week or so to check messages. Was planning on another group but priorities come first.

    I put my switch in the driver side pocket.

    Speaking of, I guess now is a better time than ever to post a picture of my install257eabe89b63387ffc5e089f3e6170da_d1217922f0447d24e282694748840873aea9df35.jpg

    Mine is in the driver side cubby.
    Looks great.

    Just so some people know I've washed my truck bed very intensely a few days ago due to mud. Lights held up great. Had the hose right up on the light strips and no issues. So someone asked before about these going through a car wash. I would have any worries

    Nice! I'm debating on adding a second switch in the cab. I will say the wife approved of the bed kit since we use it while my wife changes my daughters diaper on the tail gate.lol

    Running parallel switches may require diodes to prevent power from back feeding when both switches are in the "on" position. This would depend on the use of relays.
    Your post got me thinking a parallel switch in the bed would be a good idea:thumbsup:
