I bought a 20" bumper mounted light bar. I did not realize it doesn't come with ANY wiring to connect to my Jeep, including on/off switch or any type of instruction manual. After watching a few videos, it seems like quite a task for someone with little (or none) wiring experience. My question is, is there anything on my 2018 JLU Sahara to make this a little less daunting? Or should I just mount the thing and let a pro wire it up so I don't short out the whole thing, or burn it up??

Something along these lines, you can change the switch to whatever switch you want or get a switching system like rough countrys or an spod or something that makes it fairly simple after its hooked up. Then you dont need a harness just wires from the light to the system
