I didn't want to carve up the dash and put a switch in it. Didn't want to buy the factory stalk and retro fit either. I am a big fan of anything remote controlled so I started digging. I first ordered in a wireless transmitter & receiver from a local electronics store. It was $75 and a big honking garage door type affair.
I didn't like that so I then did some more digging and came up with one of these off of e-bay

They have many many variations but this one was cheap and had 4 channels plenty of room for other dodads
That is why I put the other lights on it, they are supposed to be white but they seem more purple to me. It comes with two remotes batteries included. I just got it all wired up today, don't know how the long term reliability will be. In the literature they say it is rated for 20amps at 14v. It says 12v lamps rated 60w a channel. I have led fog (900 lumens
) lights I haven't seen them anywhere else got them from a police/fire specialty shop. They only draw 10w each. If you were going to run big 50w hid's I don't think this particular model would do the job. It seems that 16g is as big as the terminals would take.
I haven't seen hid fogs up close but these led's are VERY bright they won't strain the electrical system, are dang near unbreakable and they are water proof to 10m. I drove them through some flooded streets shortly after I put them on, no problems.
When I say just wired up today I mean the remote part. I just had a toggle switch until I got the time and nice weather together to do the rest.
