ok not sure if this will help you or not, but what I have done for lights is a bit different I think than a lot of people.
for the bar lights I used

I use a vaccume cleaner switch the kind where step 1 is suction and step 2 is suction and brushes. I use step 1 for head lights and tail lights, and step 2 is head tail and bar lights, I run 3 different set ups on power to them. some I use a 9v battery, some I use a 8 aa battery holder

and some I directly wire into the main wire harness, it really depends on what I'm using for main head lights, some of the little fog lights work well with 12v some get a little glitchy when they heat up. I am happy to show you which is which if you need.
for the head lights I take fog lights and strip them out of the case, I make a reflector inside the headlight casing and either just put them in or put them in backwards slightly raised out from it to reflect better, for my sons f150 it has a real reflector already and a section that sticks up from it. I took 2 12v eagle eye fog lights apart put them in glued faced backwards on that center post and the reflector ends up showing it looking like a real head light. also he can see pretty far at night with the low beams(single eagle eye fog light under mains) and the high beams on,
I have not put upper lights on the f150 yet but on the jeeps that one I listed earlier I just cut out the center of the covers over the bar lights and those fit inside it, I ran wire through the roll bars so its hidden and into the lights that way..
so far no problems in over a year of weather on the vaccume cleaner switches (I did cut it close so its tight on the sides so less water leaks) and I cant say anything bad about those little spot lights I use on the bars for lights, they flood decently and they are Scammer and they are bright enough to light it up decently..
again not sure if that helps or not, but let me know if you need any other info.
at the moment I'm in the middle of going to 775 motors on his f150 with a 16t pinion and 24v hoping that makes it fast enough hehehe.. if not there is always that lighting McQueen gearbox muhahaha

Hey guys I am wanting to upgrade the wheel package on my Jeep to something a little more fun... Where do I look for more information on what other wheels are compatible with my drive assemblies?
