Hi CoopDeFeet

I wired mine into a new relay that I attached to the bulkhead next to the fuse box. I ran a wire into the heated seats circuit on fuse 20 to control the relay, as this circuit comes on with the ignition (on recent builds at least), and ran a couple of new wires to the battery with an in-line 10A fuse on the positive wire to avoid any further changes to the existing wiring. I then ran a cable to the front of the frame, where it meets wires from the fog lamps, with Delphi connectors each end so I can disconnect as needed. Didn’t see the need for a switch, the lights just come on with the ignition so I don’t have to remember to turn them on or off. Covered all the wires with split loom tubing and attached them with lots of cable ties.

Sounds like I know what I’m doing when I write this now, but I just slowly figured this out over a few weeks of googling. First time I’ve done any auto wiring.
