Default Auxiliary overhead light switch

I have my Hella's set up on my overhead rack. I was wondering if anyone in this group, has wired them to the stock dash switches. I have all these blanks on the facia not being used. Would it be difficu

XRAD, that is so beyond my scope. I suppose your home is powered by nuclear fusion. And you live off the grid. I'll pay someone to do this.

Cruise Control switches are latching so you can wire them to work with any Aux Light wiring/Relay setup. You can also tap into the illumination and make it light up at night as well with the rest of the dash lights. My advice if you can't use a meter to trace circuits or voltage = pay someone else to do it.

Do you have the roof rack lights wired up already? As Best4x4 said you can use cruise control switches but it might be good to find an electrical engineer friend or seek the services of an auto electric shop.

Meandering but good write-up:
