you dont "make" a switch.....they shouldnt obstruct the flow too much but here is how you do the switch.....


some lights have a transformer inside the stupid little plug thing so you may need to take it out.......and your gonna need to mess with it so that it still works and is connected to the lights....

go to autozone or someplace and buy a toggle switch doesnt matter what size just find one you like..i bought blue ones that have light inside them so when ther eon the light makes the switch glow blue.......anyway

you can find a power supply like maybe in the fuse box(my car had extra fuse places so i didnt need to buy inline fuses)

after you found the power source yourt going to use wether it be directly from the batter or whatever you wanna make sure if it isnt already fused(like the fuse box) to buy some inline fuses..prolly 5-10 amp. now figure out where you are going to mount the toggle switch.....

next you are going to need a ground wire...so find a good place to to ground too on the frame or make a place with either a bolt or self tapping screw.....

now once you have everything ran go ahead and attach the power from your source to the power on the switch..and the same with the ground......now attach the power from the lights to the other power on the switch(this is what makes it turn on and off) and the ground you can if you want connect it to the ground on the switch,it doesnt really matter if you make a seperate ground for the lights....prolly easier to just run it to the switch...once everything is connected turn it on and poof it should work......i hope i explained it ok if not just ask questions and i'll help you out some more


i'll make a couple PSP diagrams for you too real quick so sit tight if your still online
