Bed Cap and Cooler Rack Questions

I have an ARE Z cap with the small LED fixture, after snooping around I found that the power to the light is tied into the headlamp switch. A local installer says this is normal, not sure if I want my lights on each time I want light in the bed area. Is there another source that is a good choice for power? Sorry not familiar with wiring stuff.

Also is there a good option out there for swinging my cooler rack away from the truck so that I can lower my tailgate while fishing? Thanks in advance.

 

Have to run power from battery to be done without limitations.

 

Mine came tapped right from the battery so always hot. I’ve since installed an aux fuse/relay box so all aftermarket accessories are routed from it. Another member put his cooler on the front bumper using a front mounted receiver and put rod holders there while he was at it.
