well I will say I don't think you will have and issue with overloading the wiring. on all of the LEDs I have installed on my tractors I have always tied into existing light switch with LED draw being so much less than Conventional lights I have never had an Issue with it.

G'day Mate and welcome to TBN from Downunder.

You may be able to simply access a pre-existing wiring connection at the rear of your tractor. On my 4105, it's a 'folded back & capped' 2 line wire. It's there IOT hook up front/rear lights (a factory option) and is already wired to the four-position main light switch = Off/Hazard/Hazard&Headlight/Hazard&Headlight&Worklights.

Ask at your Dealership if a connection like this is already there or perhaps another Member knows of this and can chime in.

In my case, I used zip ties attached to small flat magnets and ran the wire down the inward face of the ROPS. I left a small loop at the hinge to allow the ROPS to fold down. I used a magnet to attach the switch as well and hooked it up to the work light wiring circuit in the harness under the right fender. I also wired a disconnect plug so the lights and wiring can be easily removed when working in the woods.

Nice job. I did similar on wiring but cut off excess and made a switch box but definitely not removable as yours
