light bar wire question
first ...up here light bars are called moose lights
2nd....last time i installed a moose light on 3rd gen I went direct to battery...which ment always had power
3rd...i did do a search but could not find an answer.
so im gonna install a moose light on my current 4runner (light has a relay and switch). I want it to switch off when ignition is off. I dont care if it lights on high beams..ive got a rocker and sometimes dont need the extra light on our poor headlights and dont want to use my fog light switch...as I use my fogs.
I plan to use one of those fuse taps...but not sure what fuse can handle the extra load. If I should tie into the one inside by our knees or the one under the hood...and what size fuse tap.
wont have time to play and guess. I have a garage available for 2 days ( and will be sleeping there...house sitting)...but im gonna be doing vc gaskets, fuel filter, heater control valve, rear hatch struts, a alternator, drive belts and a ps flush.. I wont have a rig to chase after parts while im down so trying to line up everything I can think of.
ohh... according to box...light pulls 15 amp max its 120 watt led using 15 gauge wire
ideas ?
so any ideas would be helpful so I can order stuff if needed
