I wired my power and ground back to my Blue Seas fuse block mounted in the firewall under the hood. Longer run but it made for a cleaner install for my lights.

I've also wired switches to the positive for the 12V accessory sockets

Alrock, did you modify the metal panel behind your knee bolster to get the switches to fit? Or will they fit without

I had to cut that panel. Still not happy with it as I have a hard time getting the switches to sit flush buy I haven't spent that much time on it

Kind of after the fact since you already bought the rockers, but if you only need two switches, the OEM's are cheap and they make a clean looking install.

You bet Mike. If you get both of these switches, you will need to order 2 of the pigtails. I have both & they fit & work really well. I have my brushguard-mounted H2 "mickey mouse" lights connected to the "down" arrow switch and the roof-mounted lights connected to the "up" arrow switch (makes things dummy-proof for me - too bad my dealer's detailers weren't so astute - but that's another story for another day!).
