Default OK Fog lamps

How hard are they to install your self? I have some and I have them bolted on and every thing and now I would just like some tips on connected the positive wire. I have already grounded the negitive wires for the lights.

But I want to know be for I go splicing in to my positive batter cable, is that the best place to do it at?

Thanks

The best way to wire it is to run a wire for positive to the lamps directly. DO NOT forget a fuse in line. Use the crimp loop terminal to hook on the battery terminal behind the 10mm nut. Then run the ground wire to the switch to turn them on. It is safer this way. You use the negative side for switching.

Oh thank God, so I don't have to cut in to my + battery cable then?


So I just put it behind the 10mm nut and that should give me power?

Thats all! You should never cut into your main battery cables, it can cause problems in the future.
