Dual function switches - OEM Pigtails/harness compatible?

[Sinnerman]

Hey guys! I was wondering if I'll be able to use the OEM pigtails/harness that comes with my TRD ORP, with a dual function switch (Like backlight + lightbar)? Anyone has try this and had success?

Thanks in advance!

If it has a dual switch, I don't think so, I'm installing a dual amber/white lightbar and have to use their wiring harness because of the dual function switch. The only way to use the AUX switches is if you have all the lights come on at one time together.

The backlight is a separate hot lead and would use a second aux switch.
Or do what I did and wire the backlight to ignition switched fuse instead of to a switch

Thanks guys!!!! I was also wondering, if I do
a « custom » wiring harness, where do I get my « positive/hot » in the hybrid engine bay since the 12v batterie is in the trunk? There seems to be a jumper « hot » in the passenger fuse box, is it the way to go?

I'm looking at the same spot for the positive but haven't figured out what type of connector to use. It also looks like there is a shroud around that location that if removed would give access to some bolt terminals that would be ideal.

Links bad. Don't let me hang now....lol

EDIT:

Found it, if you go to Baja Design site and look at any of their 25'-26' 4R switch panels and go the instructions, they have the 25' hybrid wiring in engine bay at the bottom of the page.



THANKS>>>>
