runnin multiply off-road lights
okay i was thinking about buying 4 more 100w KC day lighters and making a light bar for the roof of my truck. i am already running 2 kc's down on my bumper. with this many lights drawing power how could i wire it up so that it will get the power it needs. also im going to mount the light switch up on inside by dome light(thought that would be cool). any suggestions?

12 gauge wire would be overboard (but not bad), and 14 would be fine. i would personally run each 2 lights on one relay, and then run 1 switch to each pair of lights.
you can run each 2 lights together to a single ground. i wouldn't run the 4 together to one ground b/c you would need to up the wiring size, and there really is no point to have to purchase and use a lower gauge wiring just to run them together when the kit will provide what you need.
here is a decent wiring diagram that is simple enough to follow. i personally prefer to run the switch's power wire straight to the battery of course using a fuse.
