KC Lights Install

All I needed was a little direction.  With my father in law's help, we layed everything out and figured what went where.  After he instructed me on what needed to be done, I spent a few hours taking my time to get everything squared away.  I was frustrated at certain times, but once I got going, my frown flipped over as I was excitied once the lights were operational.

On this view of the engine bay, running from the passenger to the drivers side towards the rear, there are green and white wires that are used for the switch inside the cab.  Once everything was connected and the lights were powered up, 1/2" conduit was used with numerous zip ties to clean up the inside of the engine compartment.

The battery terminal area was my most difficult spot.  Two holes where drilled through just above and to the left of the battery for the relay and a ground connector.  In the photo, the white and yellow wiring were mounted to the positive side of the battery.

On the driver's side, there is a removable panel, which is where I was able to feed the green and white cables through.  Note, the opening was made through some foam insulation, and after an opening was made, fishing the wires through was no problem.  No drilling required!

Here is a view of inside the cab after installation was completed.  The on/off switch was mounted below the steering wheel on a removable panel which made placing the hardware a much easier task.  Also, I removed the stock ground connector for one slightly larger then used one of the two screws that are to the left of the pedals.



After a four hour evening of getting the lights wired up and working, I was pleased.  Two days later, while at the firehouse, I spent another two hours concealing all the exposed wire and cleaned up everything else.  And guess what?  They still worked after I got done with everything.
