Rear Bumper Axillary Lights

[Jwobes]

Hello All,

I have very limited knowledge on wiring. I do have a few AUX lights in the front wired up to my voswitch switch panel, but not any from the rear. I have the Baja Designs Squadrons mounted up in my rear Motobilt bumper (see attached). They have yet to be wired and I would like to start using them. Where and how do I run them to the switch panel up front? Does the wringing go under the Jeep and feed through the frame? Or does it feed through the cab? I cant find any good videos on it.

Thanks in advance!

Is your goal full aux control or just reverse lights?
If you just want revers lighting you just tap into the brake light harness.
If you want full aux control you just run a power wire along the chassis to the aux wiring under the hood by the battery and use a good ground in the rear.
Either project is pretty easy. I think someone here probably has a writeup.

The goal here is full aux control. If someone could post pictures of their setup I would be grateful

I don't have pics. My Voswitch is on the driver side so I ran the wire on that side. If yours is set up the same, you can get the wire into the tail light housing area by going in just behind/above the upper shock mount. Once in there run into the cab. I had to fish the wire through that large plastic piece that the 12v lighter plug is in to get it to the top of the wheel well. Pop some of the trim pieces, pull the carpet back a little bit, go the rest of the way over the rear wheel well to the bottom of the back door. There's a plastic wireway you can take all the way to the drivers footwell, up under the dash and into the engine bay. Piece of cake.
