Title: Roof Mount Spotlight Path
Post by: jhardman on May 03, 2019, 03:25:09 pm
Can any of you advise on whether it's possible to run a new wiring harness for updated roof mount spotlight?  Keith Risch removed the old one for me and I'm now ready to put on back on.  Is there a useable path to run a new wiring harness?

I have no idea what I'm doing, and would probably have Keith Risch at MOT do it, but I want to know if it's feasable.

I'm planning to use the GoLight Stryker LED  #30065 with remote control.  If they have a vertical mounting bracket pm I plan to put one on back too.

If he didn't remove the old wires, all you need is a 12v hot and ground. The old one probably has that.

He was supposed to leave the wiring, and I was wondering about using the old wiring. Seems like power and ground are power and ground. LED should be significantly less draw than the original spotlight, right?

He probably left the old wiring intact. The LEDs will draw much less juice than the OEM did. So, the existing wiring will be overkill. Almost plug and play. Easy DIY!
