You need to wire up the lights in pairs with one switch and a good relay then to 12V power. Those KC's draw so much power that you should not have more than 2 on one switch. Even then, I burned up a couple switches after running the lights for a few hours one night. And make sure you or someone else cannot accidentally flip the switches on, or you'll melt the covers. The lights get really hot, JSM84

I always wondered if they get that hot (which I know they do, just running them for a minute the lens gets fire hot) how the rock guards don't melt, if they are indeed plastic? Personally, I don't use mine with anyting covering them, I like to get as much ligth down the trail as possible.

I can't get a roof rack because of the clearance in parking garages. I'm maxed out right now with my surfrack. I am getting more lights soon by this light bar on the front. I believe I can get two to five lights on it. I've seen more put on this style of rack. The tile guy I know has four.

I like it a lot. It's just like the JBG Pre Runners almost.

i know it is relevant to what you want but i thought i'd share the link. it took me a while to find one similar to the JBG pre runner.

Did you remember to order a relay (or relayS depending on how you're planning to wire it) ?

i asked for that pre runner front light bar for my birthday when u showed me it and yesterday i got it and it looked like someone bought it and returned , it came with no hardware or anything, not even a receipt, so i called up summit and they are sending me a new one but the bar did look sick u should get it, o and i wired up my lights and everything , they are brighter than my kc daylighters and they work great so far

I was really thinking about getting that one but I've decided I'd rather just get rid of my stock bumper and get that Bronco Air full winch bumper w the guards and fog light holes. Now I'm just saving for it. I think I'm just going to get all the lesser expensive things out of the way before I go for my lift. I really don't have that much other small stuff left. I'd like to get a roll bar next I think. My friend is a welder so it won't cost me a dime. It's just when he has the time.
