Default Rigid Industries Duallys

Just got my pair of Duallys and am mounting them on my a-pillars. I have never done anything with lights. Any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

You'll spend the majority of your time zip tying the wires up to the existing engine bay wires and drilling a hole for the circular light switch. They are pretty straight forward install.

I am pretty sure when I installed mine I followed along on a write up someone did in the write up section. They where very simple. Hardest part was taking the dash panels apart so you can access the little hole through the fire wall. It was a very easy install (this coming from someone who knows little about this sort of thing).

I did a couple of Rigid Write ups, one was a D2 mounted on top of my left brake light box and wired directly to the backup circuit, and the other was a pair of D1's mounted in the factory fog light holes and wired directly to the factory fog light switches

I guess I really like using existing switches when their going to go unused after the mod anyway!

Actually to pass the wires thru you really don't have to remove any panels, there's a rubber grommet and a foam filled hole that are available. the side panel by drivers door is easily removable with a flat blade screwdriver if you want to locate the switch on the lower left portion of the dash similar to Rubicon locker switches
