    Hey Gents!

    I got 6 KC Cyclone HiLites. I'm going to install them but want them to turn on/off anytime but also turn on when. I lock/unlock the truck.

    Any ideas? Thanks for the help!

    Run two triggers to your relay. One to a dash switch, and the other to the dome light circuit.

    Would I need anything between the lights and the dome switch? I'd want them to power right up instead of fade on fade off.

    They shouldn't fade through the relay.

    (I'm assuming you're running everything through a relay and that you know how, considering the myriad of lights already installed. :cookiemonster:)
