Hardwire KC daylighters to bright's lever
Hey ya'll.. I would like to wire my offroad lights.. KC daylighters.. To my bright's. That way when driving home( 40 min mountain pass) I don't have to turn off the bright's and bend over to hit my switch near the 4wd lever to turn my lights off. I'm not really sure where to start on doing this. Thank's in advance.

Yeah thought about moving it next to the ac vent so I dont have to bend at all to turn on and off. But why would that be better? Ease of install? I have deer, moose, elk, fox and bear on my drive home everynight. So I use the light's every time I use my bright's.

Drew this up for ya.
Splice into the Hi-Beam lead so the relay is energized when you turn on the hi-beams.
Make sure to use the switch shown so you can use your highbeams with or without your aux lights.

Use the high beam wire to trigger the relay for aux lights. Then put in a Ford floor switch and use that on the ground wire to relay. That way you can run high beams alone or with aux lights. Floor switch makes so much easier to switch while driving.
I use it on grounds, so its one less power wire to run and worry about a short in.
