off roadlights. - 8/21/2008 10:07:01 AM    blkblazer   Posts: 15 Joined: 6/23/2008 Status: offline Just got Rampage grillguard/light bar and 2 150 watt,2 130 watt lights.?They come with relays so I guess they get power direct from battery and a rocker switch in the cab. How would I hook up 2 of the lights to come one with high beam switch. Anybody know . I am no electrician. Keep it simple. 1999 S10 Balzer LS 2 door 4x4. Thanks Post #: 1

It takes some extra intellect to wire them up independently of the high beams. _____________________________ 2000 Blazer 4d LS 4x4 - 265/70/15 General Grabber AT2s - Hunter Brush Guard - Surco Roof Rack with IPF 868s - 1.5'' Shackle + Tbar - 2'' BL (in reply to blkblazer) Post #: 2

Like I said though, I wired mine up independently, so I''m not entirely positive that''s the method. _____________________________ 2000 Blazer 4d LS 4x4 - 265/70/15 General Grabber AT2s - Hunter Brush Guard - Surco Roof Rack with IPF 868s - 1.5'' Shackle + Tbar - 2'' BL (in reply to Blazin NC) Post #: 4
