Light Bar ON with Brites??
 
Ok,

Hear is what I want to do. I love my XTC light bar but I would like it to come on with my brites but still have the seperate switch work for it at well. Does anyone have any idea how I can wire my fuse box safely so it can be done? And I dont want to hear about how it is illegal to drive with your light bar on. I know its illegal and I dont care. Just like you dont care if you are speeding 5 over.

I have noticed that the XTClight bar and Brites combined is awesome.

Use a relay that connects to the high beams wire. My LightForce lights were supposed to be done that way but I wanted a switch instead. If you need I can see if I can find my instructions and scan them for you.

You know it's illegal to drive with more than 4 lights on, right?

I DO care if I am only going 5 over.. That means the Prius in front of me is about to get run over for holding me up!

Audio,

Thanks man I will try that, I am guessing that I tie the circled wire in at the fuse panel to the fuse that powers the high beams?

Thanks,
Eric

The directions for lightforce say to tap into the actual highbeam wire. I don't know which would be easier. Good luck... Let me know how it goes...

I put a relay in so when I tap my horn it flashes my brites.

Tomp,

I tried using your diagram as a guideline but I have two relays and the swith on my dash has 3 wires. White---Hot, Black---Gound and Blue---????? I hooked the "Blue---???" wire to a 12v live source and I hear it tripping a relay but nothing happens. Have any ideas?

Thanks,

I didnt supply a diagram...

Were these lights working prior to stating this project?

They still work just fine. But I cannot get them to work with the brites.
