Great instructional video , only problem I have is that with the battery is in the back of the vehicle , along with the engine , the battery cable is way too short to reach the battery , do I extend the cable or do I locate a place under the dash that has constant power and connect to that point ?

Do you have to worry about how much power the light bar draws from your battery? I have a 700w light bar with a stock alternator, just worried the light bar will kill my battery faster than the alternator can charge it

that's why you need a relay it will stop the problem of draining your batteries power

demonllama95 a relay does not have anything to do with power consumption... To be clear: A relay is so that you arnt piggybacking off of another closed circuit. If the factory designed there to be two headlights and two taillights on one circuit then putting a 700 watt light bar on it might overload that circuit system.. That however is NOT what he is talking about. With car electrical systems

@@chanelhart1239 Keep in mind that a relay is basically just a switch to open or close the circuit. They are used so you dont have to run thick power cables back and forth from source to a switch on the dash and back etc. You connect the thick power cable to relay in engine bay and then much smaller trigger cables to and from the switch on the dash. Those trigger wires only send the signal to relay to open or close the circuit (hence turning off or on). You can also have the relays programmed to pulse, just just your blinkers do. The stalk on steering column are the small trigger wires that activate the blinking relay which is connected to the lights...

Hi Paulandloz1, Our harness is designed for the H4 globe found in a lot of cars, if you have something different, you'll need to splice (wire tap connector) into the headlight high beam wires and adapt the wiring harness to suit or if you're not sure, I'd recommend for you to contact your local auto electrician about it. I hope this helps.

Hey Israel, Thanks for your question. Check with your local state laws to clarify this. Most states in Australia require light bars only to be activated when the high beams are switched on. That way you only have one switch to turn off both high beams and light bar at the same time. - Ash

As super jeep auto says check your country laws i wired two light bars up to battery relays and switch all correctly.but jeep failed mot because they were not wired through head light circuit..i presented my case that i only use the light bars off road and would not use head lights as the bars combind gave me 400watts and 24000 lumens at 5k white light making head lights look like candle so use them on low 1beams so when i turn them off i have low beams but they said no way fail. So since my last comment ha e head light adaptor harness removed and replaced bumper mounted light bar for two smaller 74 watt 7,200 lumen 5k bright white combo spot and floods through my head lights which i will use on and off road sod them mot ppl. And magnet mount the roof bar when i need it with to battery etc harness in place when i want the bigger light. In short check your country laws or make sure you can remove lights when car is mot or nct depending on your country..

Hi Errol, Possibly but generally cigarette wiring is fused at 10 amps and has thin wires to suit up to 10 amps. I'd recommend wiring it separately with a fuse.

Hi William, Thanks for your questions. Yes, a rocker switch can be used in it's place.
