    Thanks for showing me how to install this exact light which I just bought. I'm night blind and going through the Eisenhower/Johnson tunnels on I-70, which are 1.7 miles long each way, is absolutely terrifying. Since traffic is one way in each tunnel, this will get me through the tunnels safely without killing me or my fellow drivers. There are lights in the tunnel, but they are so filthy and weak, they might as well not be there for me being night blind. I was surprised at the number of comments from those who try to make themselves feel good by making others feel bad by complaining about running the switch wire through the door seal rather than through the firewall. This light is not a fixture on the space shuttle and I sure am not going to drill a hole through the firewall of my car. I'll do it just like you did it. It will work fine and you know the saying, "Perfection is the enemy of good enough". Thanks again!

    way easier way to run the wire through the firewall there is a little rubber gasket that goes through and you can push through there instead of going outside the door area

    Man, I want to start by thanking you for sharing this video. I have bought an E350 4x4 Van with a long 50inch light bar on the top. I recently bought the same wiring harness as the one you used and was having seconds thoughts if I could wire the light bar on my own or not. This video convinced me and helped me do it on my own.

Mine, same brand, came with a plug that doesn't mount like yours in the video does. It's the round kind. But I just checked and the other plug seems to attach to the wire, so I might swap them.

    Real curious to know: how’s that Nilight holding up? Been on the truck a while by now. I’m mounting a 32” and some fog light pods and I sealed the seams from the outside with silicon just to give them a better chance. For the price they’re worth trying. Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks.

    Did it come with that switch or did you buy it?

    I know it’s old video , but is the red light supposed to remain on on the light switch ? Won’t it drain the battery ?

    It probably wont kill the battery, but yes it should be off when the lights are not in use. Also don't run your wires through the door jam or fenders. With the car door opening and closing they have the potential to be pinched which could later cause a short.

    When you order the light, did the second box come with it? Or was that a different order?

    At least in 2023, if you order the lighting unit and the harness as a package, they come in one box. And you definitely need the harness unless you're a master electrician specializing in vehicles.
