My stock lights where not doing the job well. I got a set of aftermarket lights that swivel and have two lights. I had to enlarge the hole in my fiberglass in the rear but the one on the front fit right in, i just had to drill new screw holes. I used the existing wiring and they work great.
 
I did in an older ford truck that I had. It was rather easy. Just remember, measure twice...cut once. :D
 
The stock wiring goes down through the A-pillar and plugs into the fuse-block ;) Try not to cut through both layers of roof :doah:
 
TTT

Im gonna need help with this. Is the two layers of metal hollow or is there insulation in there? Do I ground it to the top or do I run a common ground down with the power wire? I also want to know about fishing a wire down the a-pillar.
