ROCKER SWITCH WIRING HELP!

ok so im sure their are many write ups on how to do this, but i can not seam to find one at all.

i just need help knowing where i can tap into to get ignition power to my switches, and also where i can tap into to get dash lights to get them to illuminate when i turn on the dash lights, pics would help alot as well thank you guys

 

Looking to do this as well

 

just 4 otrattw switches just to light them up mostly

 

I ran mine to the fuse block and did it that way personally it's not entirely safe to tap into your stock wiring because it's tiny and a POS IMHO but if you want help wiring it somewhere I think I'm an hour away we can meet up this weekend I'll help you run wire

 

i got the power to the switches from my aux fuse box, i mostly wanted to tap into a wire for the dash illumination to light up the lettering

 

If I remember when I did mine you have 3 wires you have to run off those switches and they only light up when they are on? If this is correct you can run 2 wires the positive and the accesories one together in a splice to the positive and run a negative and should do the trick

 

the switches i got can just have the lettering on until you flip it on then you get bothe lettering and the picture on the switch lit, i tried daisy chaining the hot wire witch made it work but then they are constantly on, and that brings me back to wanting to tap into the ignition power to turn them off haha

 

One side of the fuse is hot with the key off = turn the key on the other side gets hot =
====OR === the entire fuse block is off until you turn your key on.
A simple test light will tell you what's hot = always test the bulb ( + - on batt) before starting any testing.

 

Ok now I understand you bought weird switches I don't have experience with lol I get it! Well yea I can't help you with advice but can still help run wire when you figure out your answer. I would assume an ignition wire if you have an amp in your car with a system you could wire tap off that, ignition wire, dome light fuse?, anything that once ignition is turned on it lights her up. Could even tap into head light wiring

 

yeah i just dont have a test light lol, hoping someone had a picture of a good wire to tap into lol

 

Have you tried to research on here at all for anything
