Hey guys!
Alright to start of I have a 2003 Ford Sport Trac and there are some lighting projects that I want to get a jump on, but am a little confused when it comes to spicing into certain wires and what wires connect to what to get power, etc. So here are my questions, with what I have found on them... any adivce would be greatly appriciated
1) Interior LED light strips made by Pilot. Alright, so I picked up a couple of these strips at my local auto parts store and asked the guy pretty much the same question as I am asking now: how can I hook 4 of these (2 packs of 2) to a switch that I can turn on and off whenever I want too? He sorta pointed me in the right direction saying that I needed a switch first off (check) then I needed wire (check) and then I needed the tools to strip and cinnect the wires/LED to a power source (check). Simple as that right?! I walked out more confused than I walked in... I'm having trouble finding a write up of how to connect the LEDs to a powersource and then to a switch and ground them. Any help?
2) I got a 49" Tailgate bar from Recon and I know how to ground that and connect everything, but my question with it is that they adapter on my truck to plug the led light bar into is very corroded. Whats the best method for removing corrosion?
Right now I think that is it. Thanks so much to anyone who can help,
J.B.
