    Has anyone ever wired the Baja Design S8 Lightbar with the Baja Design wiring harness that has the two switches (one for the white light bar and the other of the amber back lighting) with the CaliRaised dual light switch?

    I’d like both the back lighting and the actual light bar to be on one switch, but I just want some confirmation on the wiring configuration. CaliRaised only gives directions to their own light bar.

    I appreciate the feedback. I did see that review. I was hoping to see if anyone had spliced the switch directly into the Baja Design S8 dual switch wire harness. I have a pretty good idea of how it should go, but was hoping for some confirmation.

    I have my S8 wired into the dual switch.

    Essentially the S8 has four wires (if using 64-0122 harness):
    Red connects to the 12V source
    Black connects to the ground
    Green is for the amber backlights
    Yellow is for the relay

    The dual switch has:
    Black for ground; connect to black wire
    Red for battery; connect to red wire
    Blue for relay 1 (upper switch); connect to green wire
    Green for relay 2 (lower switch); connect to yellow wire
    Yellow for switch backlight power; connect an add-a-fuse

    Note that the two switch wires could be flipped, be sure to just test the wires before finalizing the connection.
