need to wire in leds.....

ok, so I got this kit so I wouldn't have to spend $600+ because I wanted blue lit gauges. Its a "wire in" kit but it has a battery pack but the switch is not a stick type switch (you have to hold it for it to work...." the wireing to the switch is cheap. Plus I want it to be legit and not rigged looking...Its a 12 volt 6amp I think and I plan on adding another set and I was wondering wheir I could wire this stuff in and if I could wire the 2 sets to the same place wheir the would be spliced in if that makes since....I do plan on putting a toggle switch in.


-their allready mounted and look mad ****en sic!!!! Best $20 bucks spend in the A Z ***** asile!





-thanks guys!

Re: need to wire in leds.....

the switch and the small wire, and the batt are all for display reasons so you can see how they work without hooking them up, just hook the red to a 12v source or switch and the black to a ground and they will work, trash can the battery and micro switch or save them for some use down the road
