    Yeah mate you can use the same power cable though youd want it regulated. Better of separate so you can put the regulator closer to the battery

    Ive got a waterproof box under my roof cage which has 3 relays in it for all my roof lights (I'll eventually get around to hooking them all up, only got the front lightbar done at the moment. Has a main power feed which runs up along snorkel to the box and distributes from there. All 3 relays run back into the cab to switches. Ill grab a photo tomorrow and post it up.

    Sounds good mate.

    BA if you do want to go those mini wireless relays, it might be best to do some googling and see if you can find some reviews. All I did was pick a random one off ebay

    When /if you come up with a nice neat install and idea and it works please post because I've thinking the same issue I'm at the point of about to just a few cables in conduit and try to hide the fact I've got cables all over the roof rack.....would still be better than previous owners wiring coz it won't be terminated with leccie tape

    Wasted the day with this stuff... could not get it to work properly and was frustrated to the point of pulling what hair I have left.

    Could not get the remote to switch the relay... searched and searched online and nothing that I could find would help.

    Where is the bottle of wine gone to... she has hidden it from me hasn't she??
