    Posted elsewhere but in throwing this here so I can get some opinions/visibility.

    So I have a 6 way fuse panel, this one: 6 Gang Switch Panel https://a.co/d/gIYW6H0. I know it's not the best, but it's been working fine for about 4 years now.

    I have a set of ditch lights and a light bar wired to it. I recently was given a pair of 6in LED circular lights for the grill. These are the lights in question: https://www.led-colight.com/blogs/news/explore-the-trailblazer-series

    It came with its own wiring harness, and had a circular generic rocker switch coming from the relay. On the back of the switch is a red, yellow, and black wire that are connected with spade connectors and hardwired to the relay.

    In order to wire it to my aux fuse box/ control panel, can I remove the physical switch, use its wires, connect the yellow and red together and crimp them into one of the free aux terminals, then ground the negative?

    I set it up this way just wanting to use the aux fuse box/ switch panel as a trigger for the relay?
    The lights themselves are run to the battery and the ground point near it.
    Thanks in advanced.
