Adding new LEDs to our rtv 500. Got evening figured out, but one item. Where to I pick up 12v for the switch? I don't really want to use the oem headlight switch as it want to use my LEDs without having to power my headlights when plowing. Any ideas?

And yes, I'm using a relay to power the lights

Figured it out. I just tapped one of the three 12v signal wires that are in the harness for the horn and headlights. I paid around $100 for 4 dealer installed halogen work lights installed on the roof. I worked with them for a year, but the fronts were useless. I kept the rear halogens, as they are sufficient for lighting the bed and backing up. I can't believe how much improvement there is with a pair of $20 LEDs.
