I gonna try to help the best that i can. Ok first of all i didn't use any fuses, (the only time i use fuses is for BIG projects, *underground lights, *6+ tubes,*ect). all of the switches i use light up, b/c i like they way they look, and because you tell if they are on or not. So these instructions are for lighted switches. 1. run a wire straight from your battery to the switch. there should be a tab labeled "supply volts" or something similar to this. 2. grond the switch to a peice of metal, and alot of it in the cab (just lift the carpet). 3. There should be two leads coming from the lights themselves. Ground the black one to the frame or whatever. The other wire is your auxilry wire, it;s probably red. Hook this into the last tab left on the switch, should say "acc." I HIGHLY suggest that you use quick connectors, insted of just twisting wires to together (i know first hand). And make sure everything is taped up really good. You don't want 2 wires that aren't supposed to meet MEET. Wire is usally included, however if you need more, i suggest use 16 guage. If you have any other questions, find me on this board. Later
