    You mean how to route your wires, or how to properly wire your switch to your lights?

    It won't be tough to wire up. I'm sure what the amperage draw of the duallys is but you will probably want to run them through a relay. Once you have the switch someone will be able to tell you which wires go where based on the schematic.

    I just wired some switches up in my truck, the wiring is pretty easy. It took me an afternoon, and another day to do from the relays to the lights. I put my switches in the panel on the left of the steering wheel.

    OP, buy them, buy the switches, buy a harness, come back to us with your questions lol

    In other news I was thinking this morning how cool it would be to have the upper switch panel basically replace the car keys and have the 6 switches turn the truck on like a nascar car :oldglory:
