I’m sure someone has attempted it but I haven’t seen where to tap the DRL fuse either

Bump. **Ditto on really wanting to find the DRL wire to tap. Baja Designs LP6 lights on the bumper and want the amber backlights to be on the DRL circuit. #Sick.
..Please help :)

If your hook up a light bar with daytime running lights capability attached to the auxiliary switch, would the daytime running lights work without the aux switch turned on or would there need to be another switch involved? I’m admittedly very green when it comes to this kind of stuff. Thanks.
There is an adapter harmess sold by @SPVPARTS that goes in line with your headlamps, so that anytime your side markers are on it will power any lights you have with back lighting (or drls) however I think the bigger issue is you are going to need to get another wire up to your roof for the light bar.

@C_Copperpot225 & @DunawY - No worries there either. We solved that with our hidden roofline harness kit.

Here is the video and here is the link.

Headlight (Parking Light) Adapter Link-

Then I would recommend our prep pack which when installed allows all plug in interconnecting between all the pass throughs, roof harness, marker adapters, etc.

Then if you wanted to share the Marker Light/Backlight power to multiple light kits. You can add a 2 or 3 way splitter for the engine bay side.

I think you will find that when it comes to clean plug n play wiring. We have just about everything covered with our patent pending interconnecting harness system. We are adding new OEM style integrating connectors all the time for other vehicles.

Aside from the fact that with some lights, at no fault of ours, you need to add connectors.. as well as the factory aux wires, where you also need to add them. We include connectors and pins with our harness kits (Light Fog, Light Bar, Ditch Light, Rear Harnesses).

For those uncomfortable adding the pins on their wires. We also added these crimp on pig tail kits, as well as a 6 wire, numbered prep extension for your switch wires that are numbered 1-6.

Here is one more video with our roofline harness installed using that backlight power for demonstration-





You guys might want to save this link to my Youtube Channel and use it for a lot of information for anything you are trying to do light wise. From wiring, to products, to scenarios to installs. If you subscribe, you will get notified of new videos. We are currently adding several new videos with lots of cool new Bronco and Raptor products. Including backlight wiring, etc. We have demonstrations of backlights with everything from Baja LP4/6 to Rigid Radiance, 360 and Diode. New Roof & Bumper mounts and kits including harnesses...

I heard some people mention fuse taps. Man. I don't like those. That's sort of a last resort if you want an OEM like install. I also would never recommend cutting into or clipping on factory wiring. Our Plug in connectors accomplish the same thing without compromising the vehicle or potential warranty issues down the road with cut into harnesses.
The Point of our patent pending harness system was to allow ANYONE to do the custom wiring they wanted in virtually any way possible by simply selecting and adding and plugging in components. No splicing. You can combine harnesses to one switch. Access reverse trigger power for rear lights. Access parking/marker lights. Power lights with or without backlights. Share backlight power. Add relays if you need them or not if you don't. Split ends to add additional lights to one harness. Plug in connector adapters to match any light brands connectors. All the things you would need to take you vehicle to a shop and ask them to cut wire, split it and add to it to make your connections. You can do by picking out pieces like a lego set and just connecting them.

@SPV This is an amazing and I’m sure the guy asking the OP appreciated it. I’m curious, do you have a video showing how to get to the driver side harness? I’m assuming the passenger is just so much easier though.
