That is the video that I used to install the lights.  I am going to use some small push button switches going to hide them..  I try to make all my mods where you can take them off and you can't tell they were there.

I have these installed so they come on with the high beams. Then turn off when high beams are off. No switches involved.

Do you have a write up or direction on this action?

I do not at the moment. Give me some time and I can have a write up on it.

 

I have the 2 10" light bars in the grille, a 30" light bar behind the grille, and 2 LED pods just below the bumper. All controlled by relays hooked up to the high beam fuse. RGB LEDs are opt7 rock lights, LEDGLOW million color 24" bar, and 6 off brand RGB LED strips all hooked to parking light fuse on a relay.

 

6 amber LEDs are hooked to the DRL fuse, and are on whenever the DRLs are on. THey do not dim when the headlights are on.

Tailgate bar is a plug n play into the trailer harness. 

 

Running board lights are amber running lights, sequential turn signal, and white when dome lights turn on.

 

LED strips in the bumper steps are hooked in to the DRL circuit, and sequential turn signals.

 

3 White LEDs are hooked in to the reverse lights.

What did you hook the 2 10" light bars in the grille too?  You mentioned they come on with highbeems.

What fuse is that?  I have a GMC so it could be different but I don't recall seeing a separate fuse for the DRL's.

It's fuse 3 or 4 on my truck. These seem to give power to the headlight assembly. This is how I get the ambers on all the time. I may have been in correct to call them the "DRL" fuse. But when I pulled it, the DRL when out.

I hooked in to fuse 1, or 2.

 

This provides signal to the relay's coil I have, then the relays give (fused) power through the harnesses to the lightbars.

I did this rough country set up and wired it to a wireless module and used one of my home link buttons to turn them on so I didnt have to run wires to the cab. Works great.   I would of liked to have brighter lights but with my ltz grill that was the only option I had.  They do fill in at night but do not expect them to light the world up in front of you.

I was expecting brighter also. But they do give a nice fill light when the high beams are on.

    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
    • Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
