Wife and I installed some lights on our @ROAM bumpers.
She installed a single row 20" @Rough Country Suspensions Black Series light bar(I've had great luck with their lights in the past.)

I installed two cheapo side shooter LEDs to make sure I would like how they fit and how the light spread would be mounted on the bumper(Before I spend $$ on a set of Rigid LED's that may or may not work.)
Light output on both is outstanding, if mine hold up I may keep them rather than spend over 5x as much on the Rigid LED's.

Did you JL some with the preinstalled aux switches? If so, how did you do the wiring for the light cubes? I have been attempting to install a couple of Rigid SS and can't seem to get power to them...

Just connect the power wire to the powered switch wire. The relay is built-in. Then, ground it. There are plenty of places to connect the ground. I did it with a light bar. Easy as pie.

I took the red and black with the battery terminal ends...grounded the black to the side of the Jeep...clipped the red below the built-in fuse and connected that to the aux wire...still no power...see pics...

Sorry I can't be of help, we wired ours into the existing fog light harness(Dont have the tow package with switches.)

Busted bumper, bent plate, scratched wheel from what I can tell so far.

Both are totaled. Order your new Jeep. Ha

Jk...hope everyone is alright.
Haha, seriously, that’s kind of how I feel about it! First time in 24 years of driving that I’ve been in an accident. Yes, everyone was fine. The guy kept apologizing, saying how sorry he was for wrecking my “really nice new Jeep”.
