I’m mounting Off Road Lights on my 2004 Tacoma, I was going to wire it to the fuse box for power but don’t know the best way or the correct fuse to use. I don’t have access to a test light at the moment. I was going to use the fuse labeled ACC thinking it was there to connect Accessories, but that made the radio stop working. I would like to mount it in a way that the off road lights are not tied to my driving lights. Any tips to make this project go smoothly would be greatly appreciated.
Did your kit come with a relay.
A relay is so you can control a large current device with a very small amount of current.
Any lighting system should be wired with a relay regardless of what fuse you tap into so it does not over load the switch or the vehicle wiring.

really just need a hot wire better if its not running anything else but just about any hot wire will do it id say run a wire off battery but any space in the fuse box that you dont see a fuse you could use them also
