    Quick questions for the experts.
    Added a hood bulge lightbar with a 4 wire Amazon switch. The push on - push off switch looks pretty close to OEM if you don't stare at it and am looking for suggestions on where to tap in to illuminate the switch when the headlights are on.
    Thanks

    Tap into a neighboring switch... .light pink wire if I recall correctly. Those wires are thin so take your time.

    Use the round wire taps that screw together. They work much better then the flat ones especially on thin wires.

    Posi-taps. Expensive but makes installs easier.
