hey does anyone know how to wire those leds correctly? i did it and they worked until i turned my jeep off, and now they refuse to work even though everything is wired correctly. you can tell (because its an LED lighted switch) that the switch isnt getting power which is why i think its not working but its connected right to the battery with a 10A fuse in the line so i cant imagine why its not working.

Wire it up correctly and it will work, wired straight to the battery with just a switch is not the proper way. Using a relay etc is the right way. Look up any diagram for say off road lights etc and it should work then, OR you could just wire them directly to your parking lights if you want them on all of the time ( which of course the local po-po may really like

Nah quite easy infact! Just follow a wiring diagram. If you are just over in concord I would be willing to help.
