Could someone shed some light on my wiring thought for bull bar?

I have 4 pods. Will be wired to 2 switches in the cab. 1 switch for inside 2 pods, 1 switch for outside 2 pods.

First time doing this with lights. So want to make sure. I have also requested the current draw for each light so the fuses might change.6173fd6392609aacb284df4753a75a17.jpg

Looks perfect to me!
If you are doing LED - you will not have hardly any current draw, even if all 4 where on the same circuit.


I do recommend doing a lighted switch in the cab. Bit more to wire - but nice to know if the lights are on/off etc.

Thank you Sir. I emailed go rhino just to get a confirmation. I like to size wire and everything appropriately.

But yes, I will get a switch with a little led. Have any recommendations? See tons on amazon, but hard to guess which ones are decent.

Also. The SPST switch. i will have a lead going to the relay. And give it a constant 12v through an add-a-fuse in the cabin fuse box. Then the ground.

Right?

Seems like you got everything covered to me. Should work just fine for your switch too

Thank you also Sir. I'm no electrician. But do have common sense, lol. Just never done this before with light bars and such.

Thanks again for your help. Now I just have to wait until the bar comes in! Ahhggghhh!!
