previous owner did this Head light mod. Has angel eye rings like a BMW, lol. What's cool about this mod is that if my light goes out I just need to replace the bulb and not the whole head light. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...Picture013.jpg

MMmmmm, Electrical! I must comply . Checked it out for my '95 4R....



To add an additional controller would be pretty simple. The computer is on the left side, in the cargo area, behind the trim panels. Take your dual throw, center-off switch and connect the common pin to ground. "UP" would tap into the Red/White wire (Pic ID: #4), and "DOWN" would tap into the Green/White wire (Pic ID: #3).

If you wanted to add it into the tail gate itself, you tap into the back of the key switch. Common to White/Red (Pic ID: #1), "UP" to Red/Blue (Pic ID: #2), and "DOWN" to Green/White (Pic ID: #3).

their all over eBay yall...

I even changed that little light they put in there to a green LED...



But I ditched them cause they we're not sealed right when built, as you can tell in this photo... the driver's side one is all fogged up...



I still have the composite ones that take the H4 bulbs, but I have better ones now

i just took the glass out, and spliced in wire at the key switch then ran it to the double throw center off switch. much easier

Hahha!! That's option #2, in my original post I like my junk to look as factory as possible, so I figured out how to do it so you could use a factory UP/DOWN switch dremeled and glued to the cargo area wall....

Hidden fuel pump switch to make sure if a thief wants my whole truck they'll have to strip it there or flatbed it but it won't be driven away.
