    I got in over my head trying to install my light bar. The red wires from my LEDs are connected to these yellow wires. What happens to the yellow wires if I disconnect these?

    Not quite understanding the question.

    If you don't want the LEDs, and want your lightbar to use what your LEDs used, then attach the yellow wires to your light bar wiring.

    I'm removing all my LEDs and lightbar. But I don't know what to do with these yellow wires if I disconnect everything.

    Also, one of the bolts for the roof rack rusted and stripped so I'm going to just push the truck down the hill in neutral and let nature take it's course

    that looks like the backside of a relay, pull the relay and chase the wiring so you remove all the wires associated with the LEDs. theres likely an in line fuse and a battery connection somewhere that should disconnect also. i'm not sure what your trigger wire is going to.

    If I could see it all in front of me I could probably help. Are you just removing all the lights or switching some out?

    Looks like you got it sorted!

    But yeah, remove it all, including the relay. If it’s all aftermarket, it’s probably just zip tied up somewhere.

    It doesn’t look like it was spliced into OEM wiring. (At least from what I can see). But if it was, just take off the LED wiring and tape the suckers back up.

    That " no rust" impala was disintegrating under the plastic rocker covers. I even specifically asked about the rockers before I drove 2 hours to get there.

    Fucker.

    Typical used car salesman, when I was looking for a truck, that is what I ran into. Called, asked about the frame, they say "oh yeah, it is clean", drive the couple hours to go look at it, the frame is a crusty mess. Then when I started asking for pictures, no one would get back to me!
