toggle switches - 7/20/2008 9:50:28 AM    NVANZEE Posts: 276 Joined: 1/13/2008 From: Grand Rapids, Michigan Status: offline I have some LED''s in my blazer.  I want them to be able to turn on when the dome light goes on and i want to be able to turn them on at anytime even if the dome light is off.  I found a switch that i think will work but is says its for 125VAC.  Will this work for my blazer or not. If it does would this work how on want it to.  http://order.waytekwire.com/CGI-BIN/LANSAWEB?WEBEVENT+L0F971C01755703004FD5072+M37+ENG _____________________________ 99 2 Door 4x4, 31" BFG A/T''s, westin safari bar, tinted windows, projectors, sony HU Coming soon (hopefully) 5 or 6in lift, body lift, 33" tires on 17''s, 4 Dayton subs in custom box, 2 Alpine PDX1000 amps, Fender Flares Post #: 1

Some diodes can be used as to not back feed into the dome light circuit. A great resource for 12v electrical setups is the12volt.com. _____________________________ Kyle- 2004 Rainier 1970 Chevelle - Resto 1974 K5 Blazer - Resto (in reply to packofqtips) Post #: 7
