    its a Toyota truck and that's all the modifications needed
    Ive installed some PIAA 5354 Driving lights and would like to power them thru the Fuse box inside the cab using a Add a Fuse circuit,can anyone give me an idea what fuse to tap into in the fuse panel? Ive have a 2 position rocker switch for on/off. Also would I need to use an in-line fuse with the add a circuit? The lamps are LED and draw .5 amps so I am assuming the total draw is 1 amp for both? Im trying to wrap up this light project and don't need to fry anything in the truck :facepalm: Thanx

    Add an auxiliary fuse block to your truck. I installed a Blue Sea Systems ST 6 circuit fuse block

    Its not hard to do. Fuse block $25 to $35. No 8 wire to positive on battery No 12 wire to switches and relays. Plenty Youtube videos to show you.
