Lightbulb Light Switch

I am getting some of those cheap lights that go on your hitch and I have a switch that fits the knockout to the left of the steering wheel perfectly. My question is, is the area behind the switch pre-wired for something oe is it just a hloe. Also, how hard is it and where do you route the wires to get to the switch if I put it there. The writeups for roof rack lights just left me a little more confused. Thanks. Lamm

its just a hole behind the knockout. I ran the wires for my lights down behind the dash and the then behind the left drivers side kickpanel and under the carpet. hope this helps.

I have ran a lot of wires on mine from the front to the back. There are a couple of ways to run the wires; one is under the kickpanel, the other is underneath the consel and under the carpet to the back seats and then under the carpet in the cargo area back.

I know how to run the wire to the back from when I installed my CB antenna, I am wondering how to get the wires up into the dash to the cutout spot, I just looked briefly and it wasn't too obvious to me. Thank you for the help all.

The easiest way is usually to have have trouble light on the floormat and feed the wires down towards the glow. Usually...
