Post pics when done. Looks like the whole state will be wet for the next few days. I’ll probably be in the garage too.

I just brought mine home from my cabin to add my winch, bumper light, reverse light, rock lights, and cab lighting. I also got the switch with 2 usb ports, as well as a volt meter built in. Also adding fender flares and floor mat.

I gave light bar wiring a test run before mounting and the switch stayed lit up with key out of switch. I don't want it to kill my battery can I fix by removing a jumper on rocker switch? Here's a picture of switch. I have held off running to ace hardware to get rest of mounting stuff because if the switch kills my battery it won't be of any use.

I googgled 5 pin rockers it looks like they put a jumper between fused power and rocker switch lights I think if I cut jumper and used a switched wire like white on acc plug that would only let switch light up when key was on. Does that sound right?.

You are correct. I have the switch light run to the acc. plug and it turns on with the key.

I mounted it on top of bumper , it is a flood spot combo. I will see how it does tonight and get it aimed, I will paint brackets with acrylic paint after I get it pointing like I want it. I rigged up switch so I can try it . My plate should be here any time it's been 3 days since I ordered it. Don't laugh at switch to bad it's temporary.

The switch for my rear light showed up but I won't do any thing else till my plate shows up. I stole the rear light switch from jackels thread I thought it was cool.
