    Default SIZE

    These lights are 2.45 " long. How many did you use?

    It appears that they are powered only when the Spyder is turned on. Is that so?

    Thanks...

    I used one. I did that so it would not accidentally drain the battery if I forgot to turn it off.

    Looks great
    I have been wanting to do that but been doing other farkles instead
    The switch shuts it off if you close the lid. right?
    so I might hook it to my auxiliary fuse box and powered when key is off
    Thanks

    The frunk light uses the same microswitch the hood release does. when the lid is closed, it takes the hood actuator to ground. When the lid is open, it completes the circuit for the light. Power for both is on when key is on.

    I used a micro toggle switch not a sensor.
