Ditch light questions..

Hello Guys, i'm new and i cant seem to find the answer.

I noob question. I have an 22ORP. I have the caliraised ditch lights and im wanting to use my new Garmin switch pro. Everything is plugged in. The lights only turn on if the stock ditch light button is plugged in and pushed to the "on" position. How do i wire the ditch lights to bypass the button? If i unplug the button, then they wont turn on. The whole purpose of me using the Garmin switch pro is to wirelessly turn my lights on/off.

Any advise?
Thanks in advance!

With a Switch Pro, you would wire the positive wires on the ditch lights to one of the six power outputs from the Switch Pro. No use for the "stock ditch light button". With a Garmin PowerSwitch, I would imagine you would do something similar.
 
I knew I wanted ditch lights, but didn't like the looks of them at the back of my hood of a daily driver. I replaced my foglamps with the Squadron Pro driving combo in amber plug and play kit from Baja Design.

I love the performance and clean look of this setup.

fwiw the s2 from baja with a low profile bracket are hardly noticeable. if you run black covers on them when not in use they blend right in. yes you can see them but they are pretty low profile

What about this setup.

From Ronin’s website:
2010 - Current Toyota 4Runner Ditch Light Brackets (5th Generation) – Ronin Metalworks LLC
2010 - Current Toyota 4Runner Ditch Light Brackets (5th Generation) – Ronin Metalworks LLC

-Provides the full functionality of a true ditch light and eliminates the wind noise and hood glare, opposed to a traditional hood mounted bracket.

-Will still allow the mirror to be folded in, on tight trails and will still stay within the confines of the folded mirror.

I wouldn’t care to have that setup. Of the two options, I’d rather have it on the hood than on the side mirrors.

Between my replacement foglamps and my 20” lightbar in my SSO hybrid bumper, I think I’m done with buying forward facing lights.

Yeah.You can go crazy on lighting. I’m satisfied with my setup. Maybe if I 4 wheeled at night more I could justify it.
