Cool. Im curious to see some lights wired up to it, as I am sure you are too. When you buy a light or pair, do you just have to then hook it up to the aparatus under the hood, to the color/switch light you would want?

Amazon. They are Plasmaglow black led activator switches. They are not the cheapest option but look very clean.

Looks good. So when you get everything running are you going to go to a dual battery system? Thats a lot of stress on one stock battery.

I just added a switch to the stock pillar also. Only lights up when in use. I like it better that way, plus Im cheap ...
