Thanks for making this. You kept going over it again and again, but that’s how I learn…and it helped out. Thanks.

[@fiftynation]

Glad I was able to help you out! Appreciate your support 🙌

[@austinsauer3826]

I didn't know anything about cars and trucks before this now I feel like I know everything

[@kaatilop]

Buddy i have only one question and it is is there any way to wire it without disturbing the fire wall?

[@johnmichaels4330]

Yes. There is a company that makes a system for lights and such that keeps the sealed box under the hood and uses Bluetooth to allow wireless switches be placed in the cab or wherever you like.

[@fiftynation]

That's cool! I'll have to check this out.

[@austinsauer3826]

Hell ya thank u

[@fiftynation]

Hey no problem man thanks for watching! 🙌

I’m running a 126 watt light bar and it came with a 10 amp and a 15 amp fuse for the in line fuse which one do I use? It’s a 2020 f150 and i have the full wire harness from nighlight

[@fiftynation]

Your light bar should have some specifications on it stating either amps or watts, what is that number?

[@fiftynation]

In all likelihood 10Amp will be fine. If you're ever unsure smaller size is better because it will guarantee better protection.

[@anthonyscorsone9255]

I just checked it’s 15 amps

[@fiftynation]

🙌

[@anthonyscorsone9255]

So using the 15 amp fuse is good? Or should I stick with the 10? Thank you by the way for posting everything you do I’m new to the f150 world and your content helps! I subscribed to your channel for sure haha

Quick question: If I add grill lights and a set of tube lights to an existing set of lights, do I need to go up in fuse size?

[@fiftynation]

Like increase the main fuse for the lights you want to tap off of?

[@benc4412]

@@fiftynation yes

[@fiftynation]

@@benc4412 if they're LEDs, if you're adding a bunch of incandescent bulbs, may not be an awful idea. However you should also make sure to put an online fuse on the aftermarket equipment you're installing.

​@@fiftynation so what if I wanna add two little LED to my headlight (to make some kind of tear spark to the corner) would that need a fuse change if I wire it to the headlights?

[@tommymcgee7740]

If'n to hook up well light with your videos...

[@rick6469]

Hi I want to wire up marker lights on the side of my truck 6 each side what's the best way to do this please

[@fiftynation]

It depends. When would you like them to be on? By simply hitting a toggle switch? Integrated with your day time rubbing lights? Come on when the low beams come on?

[@techtoday5784]

hello dude I wonder if I want to wiring additional low beam to my car is it ok to use stock wire in car just splice it up? any problem with that?

[@fiftynation]

You can certainly do this. Just make sure to put a fuse on your positive wire going to your new lights. So if they happen to fail or fault out, you don't take out your headlights.
