I always liked those lights dude. Looks good. :HoleShotHolset:

Might wanna stick a grommet in where you put those wires through the fender or whatever it was. And It wouldn't hurt to wrap those wire taps with shrink wrap or electrical tape at the least. :m2c:

i used to have that same setup on my truck, had them from bumper to bumper on both sides and hooked them up through a relay and the directionals to they were on while driving and would flash with the directional but they flashed opposit

Now for my setup on would a relay be worth it and would i use one per side or jus one central one?

Hey at least when u were turning people knew what way u werent going :smilielol:

[01cumminssport]

you need 2 relays one for each side ill draw up a picture if you want for the wiring
oh ya they could see me coming form a mile or more away i had 24 tripple led lights on each side

24 on each side!! :omg: thats a load of lights :smilielol: do u use 30 or 40 amp relay? i should be go on the wiring besides i really dont need it that bad but i ur case with the 24 per side yea would be good to have

so with ur relay setup u never used a constant 12v from the battery u used it from the directional bulb?

[01cumminssport]

ya there L.E.D's they only use .01 amps about and 4 volts is what they turn on at so there isnt a huge load on the system

[01cumminssport]

you can use power from the battery but that requires another relay and you would just use the park lights to switch on the relay to put battery power to the lights just more wiring but if your using regular lights or lots and lots of leds its a good idea to take the load off of the headlight switch bec we all know how good they are at holding up higher loads

I've got 7 #168 led's per side and they are hooked up through a small 12A @ 125V relay per side that I got from an old UPS. (uniterruptable power supply) for computers. From the front running lamp wire, through a resistor to cut the brightness about half, to the normally closed pin; Full 12V from batt. to the normally open pin; From the directional wire at the front blinker to the coil of the relay; And of course the other side of the coil to gnd; And the last remaining pin is the output to the lights.
So they run half bright untill I turn on the blinker or hazards, than they blink at full bright. And they blink full bright even without my headlights on.
