Driving Lights
I have some generic driving lights that I plan on mounting in the next week or two...They didn't come with any instructions, so I have a question. I dont want to tap the high beams. I want there to be a switch inside the cabin. How do I get the wire from the engine to the cabin?
Thanks. I'll post pics when I am done!

I would suggest running a switch AND tapping into the high beam power. That way, they will turn off when your flick your high beams off and you won't have to do two things at once to prevent blinding oncoming traffic.
Run the wire through the grommet in the firewall where the wiring harness comes through. That's where everyone I know has done it.

Thanks a ton!

I'm not sure, but this looks like he ran it through the firewall into the back of the parcel shelf....maybe if you removed the shelf you could see an opening and go from there?
