Wired up some ditch lights to my upfitter switches

[Synyster06Gates]

Took advantage of the easy wiring that comes with the Tremor. Added some cheap ditch lights to try before spending money on a better set. All in all with the Diode Dynamics brackets, Nilight 42w cubes, and wiring harness I'm in about $125. They look pretty good - I'll be interested in seeing how they perform at night.

Wiring was a snap. I chose switch 3, which is 10A since these lights together should draw about 7. Ran hot to the lavender/green wire and ground to the post on the battery and that was that.

can you post pictures of the switches? A link would be helpful too, but I can google once I know what I'm looking for. I am on the hunt for switches.

They come factory in the Tremor package. I'm not sure how easy it can be added aftermarket.

Gotcha - thanks! Didn't know they were called upfitters.

Austin, great job and nice truck! Still waiting on my Tremor (ordered 3/13 - no estimated delivery yet), but I'm very interested in pics of the wiring install you did. Also, can you share a few pics if you have them? Do you have a link to the harness you used? Thanks in advance.

That looks pretty good. We were working on some switch add ons ourselves.
We have been very big in the Raptor community, and are now pushing into the Ranger and upcoming Bronco. We just signed up with Ranger5G and are going to be applying as a Sponsoring Vendor so we can offer all the members the same kind of specials we do the FordRaptorForum members.

That being said, I wanted to add a couple links to some videos on some new products we exclusively developed. They go right along with what you have here Colo_Ranger.

We developed the first ever completely universal plug n play wire harness system that will connect directly to your switches-



And here are some of our Exclusive Kits we developed and installed on Mikes truck (Another Forum Member)-

That's the harness I used. I cut off the fuse/relay and switch. All I needed was a + and - wire.

Ran the wiring from each light down the back on the cowl. Then ran it towards the battery - negative goes to the top post and positive to the relay/switch you want to use. Mine's "temporary" - I'm going to go back and solder the joints soon.

Super! Thanks for the pics, link, and info!

Since it's almost dark I figured I'd go take some pictures. They put out a pretty good amount of light. I can't complain for $28.

These are really nice and looking forward to seeing what you come out with for the Bronco. I have one on order and will be adding pods and a light bar to it. This is the video that made Mike @Fawnbuster a Youtube star. ?

I got mine from Covert too! Badass light set up.

Big difference in light output for just $28! Looks great!
