LED Light Bar
I'm considering adding a 24" LED flood/spot combo to the front of my 96 Ram. For those of you that have added these, how did you wire them? My preference would be to have it kick on with the highbeams, as running the light otherwise isn't probably safe for other drivers (although I could see much better).
Also, any lessons learned about where/how to install these (or where not to install these)?
Thanks,

A four post relay would be the best way to wire it so it will be pulling power straight from the battery. You could tap a high beam wire for the 85 terminal on the relay to make the lights kick on.
I like the idea of wiring them into the high beams and I've considered doing the same thing with my off road lights. I like the extra light from them but I only run them late at night because it gets annoying having to reach down and flip the switches every time a car passes by. When I do run them before 11pm I don't turn on the high beams because that's another switch to hit when a car passes.
