I'm going to use the BD harness and tap into the aux switches to run them. How did you rewire the relay? I'd like to have Aux 1 be for low and Aux 2 or 3 for high. I'd love to have it so that the low/high can't come on at the same time. Also, do you know what color the wiring is for high and low? I'm sure I can figure it out, but any shortcuts would help.@BajaDesigns don't worry about answering that post of mine. I figured it out. I ended up removing the switch and rewiring the relay so it controls the high/low.
For others that are doing this, I suggest you use Aux 1 or 2 since they are 40 amp circuits to power the light. You can use 3 or 4 if you do what I did and rewire the relay so it switches from high to low.
As it stands I didnt plug in the amber lights to either my day time running lights or use one of the other Aux buttons for fear I might want that in the future. If I end up finding the wire to tap into for the DRL's I MIGHT go that route. Since the ambers are just essentially backlighting they don't serve too much purpose.
One thing that would have been good to have are longer mounting bolts. When you mount these on the Mopar brackets (on your winch guard if you have one), the bolts are too short. They do not make contact with the locking nut. I threw a SMALL amount of loctite blue on mine. Its a small amount of insurance so you dont end up dragging an expensive light down the road!
Please assume I know very little when you explain. I'm not experienced at all with this kind of wiring. I've done simpler setups, like a set of Hellas, and a set of Rigids, but this looks more complicated to me, especially with all the wires at the BD 3 way switch.
