Hmmm...Ian, can you help me out on this design before I screw myself up?
What I had followed to do was the power wire from either of the stock reverse bulbs would apply power to the power side of the relay, and click the power switch for power to the modified lights. And once I go from reverse to drive the power to the stock reverse circuit would cut off and in theory turn the relay off.
The additional switch in the diagram is used for like utility purposes like using them for light while I am doing something back there, and the switch would be off when I put the truck into reverse.
I think that would work, but then again I put this design together in like 10 minutes. But hell that's why we're all here...to help out.
Oh and on another note, would the fuse for the reverse lamps require a higher amp fuse to run the relay as well as the stock lamps? I couldn't find a stock reverse lamp wiring diagram to verify.
Thanks Ian!
