Acc Marker Lights
Hey everyone,
I want to add on some additional marker lights. I want to run amber lights along the step bars, amber markers along the front air dam, amber marker lights on the roof, and red markers along the rear between the tailgate and bumper. I know that Dodge is notorious for weak headlight switches, so I can't just tap into the current parking circuit. I've heard that you can wire a relay in to power them but how do I do this? Also should I go LED or normal lites? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks guys!!!

For those who are interested, this whole project came about because my friend has a 1998 Silverado with all the lights and i'm DETERMINED to one-up him, because DODGE IS A BETTER TRUCK!!!

RE: Acc Marker Lights
I'm not sure about the route for wiring. This is gonna be an all day addition for you so I'm sure someone has got some pointers for you because you don't want to mess this up. I've heard of people trying to improve the hp and such but this is a first for me seeing someone wanting to one up someone on lights!! I love it!
I think LED's are brighter but thats not an area I'm familiar with. Good luck man and post some pics when you get done, because this is something I gotta see!
