After seeing BB's I too jumped onboard. Picked up a used n abused pair for $80 on ebay, but are around $100/ea new. If you go to your local boating store, they carry consumer versions (same dimensions) of these for $40.

Ive yet to need fuel on a run, but have run dry on washer fluid twice, which is whats in my 2nd jug. Scepter makes smaller 2.5gal mil spec versions which would be ideal for this, theyr called "runts".

I think my lights got here today. Gonna play around with them to figure out what I need for wiring and switches.

Couldn't hold out so I was playing with them at work. Very productive day. Lol

Here is my awesome wiring diagram for how they will be wired. The main switch will probably be AUX 4 and the other 3 will be hidden as they won't be used often.

meaning one of you have a bigger tube

No, meaning he has a few different versions/prices of brackets. Here is a better pic of mine. Each bracket is held on with 6 bolts...my bed will fall off the truck before these things do...

Here's what my intentions are... After making the video I did learn that I will be able to get rid of the sync switch so all I will have is the main power switch (AUX 4) and two pattern switches. I ordered a momentary on/off/on switch so I can utilize one switch for both pattern wires.
