Default Quad light rewiring

I finally figured out most of my light problems, thanks to my buddy who's pretty good at that kind of snags. But we cannot figure out the quad light problem, nothing make sense, so it's going to turn into a custom wiring job.

Any suggestions on how to do it? best place to put the relays and switch?

Thanks

I put my relays over by the batt to help keep things simple, I mounted my switch in the gauge pod on the A pillar.

I thought of putting the relays on the back side of the battery box to protect them. I have a pilot switch that I want to use, you know one of those flip the red cover up and flick the switch on aircraft cockpit type.

I used a three-way switch on-off-on that puts lows/highs on one switch ezer to work them. You have unlimited opt here, post pix when you are done the job.

Quad lights are not working, refer to my 3 or 4 past threads lol.

Found some weird 2 in 1 wiring in the wire bundle up front and what we get for readings at the PDC relay pins is totaly out of wack. So I decided that I have wasted enough time on that and rewiring makes more sense.
