I just did this over the weekend I ordered a micro fuse tap from Amazon and waterproof plugs . The grommets on those light fit perfect into the grill

I just used theee over

That looks great !!👌 those are wired the you tap them into your fuse block to turn on with lights ?
Do you have the link to the fuse tap part .

looks exactly like what I want to do , are they bright?

thank you

So I just tapped into my sunroof fuse witch is like 66 for now so they stay on. My truck didn’t have a running light fuse or at least I couldn’t find it when it warms up I plan on looking into it or just splicing it into my light harness . They are pretty bright

They look plenty bright for that accent light loos great , nice job !

I went a different route… I decided to upgrade my grille and make my own mounting brackets to add my driving/amber lights behind the grille

its a lot different then what your looking at doing, but this just shows different options

there’s a great thread somewhere on the site, where someone showed how to wire the lights just like what you’re looking to do…,

I ran 2 fuse taps off the fuse block to a back pan I mounted behind the second row… one circuit comes off the constant power and the other comes off the Keyed power… I need to look up which fuses they were…

 

[Baron]

Fuse F90/91 - - Batt +12v (Constant Power)
Fuse F104 - - Acc +12v (Keyed Power)

I think fuse F104 would be fine to tap off of. Its the power that will only power up after to turn on the ACC

Thank you bud ! I like your lights they are different nice in amber

Is fuse 104 under the hood or dash. I have them on a remote but would like them to turn on and off when I start the truck and turn it off

 

[Baron]

Yeah, it’s under the hood in the main fuse block

 

[Tommyboy]

Awesome, Thank you. I have been looking and no one has said what you did. Thanks again.

I tapped into the side amber lights, but ran it through a relay and a fuse line. I followed a YouTube tutorial which was really good from here:

He also details the wiring diagrams etc. The connecting wire on mine was different but I found the correct one with a tester

Looks great that’s exactly what I would like to do ,
Have it come on when I turn the truck on , I was wondering if the cigarette lighter would work the fuse ?

Thanks

Im not really sure, getting the wiring through the grille and down to the wheel arch wasnt too bad just take the front driver side wheel off and take the inner wing out and its easy to access the wiring loom coming off the back of the drivers side headlight. Trying from above was almost impossible.

Ok I’ll look into it , but you mentioned you needed a ready also ?

I ran it through a relay yes. Basically you run the power directly from the battery to the relay, and you run a wire from the side lights. When the side lights come on it sends a signal to the relay which opens the relay and activates the LEDs this then protects the system from any voltage drop and errors (according to waterfowler video above).

Thank you sorry to keep bugging you , would you have a picture of the relay you used or link
