The lights are on...
Just finished hooking up my lights. KC Slimlights on Smittybilt windshield brackets and KC Rally 800's on the winch hoop. Hooked them up and they work! Thanks to everyone on this forum who went before me and posted great pictures and write ups.
I chose to put the switches on the A-pillar and it was a snap, plenty of room, several grounding spots to use, and easy to get through fire wall. I used the KC harnesses, switches, relays, and fuses. Had to splice some wire in and out here and there, but overall went smoothly. See what you think...

Thanks, I'm pleased with how it turned out. Those are 6" KC Slimlites 130W Long Range on the windshield bracket. I chose Smittybilt brackets because they sit a little more out and down than some others, but clearly just personal preference there. It thought the 6" lights looked good on the windshield, but I went with the 8" KC 800 Rally lights for the hoop. I felt they were similar in size to the headlights and didn't look too big. I looked at a lot of pics on the forum before I decided.
I considered several locations for the switches as well. In the end, I like the look of the switches on the A pillar cover. I only had to remove the side dash panel and the A pillar to complete the job. There's also room for probably 3 more back there when I need them.
I hope my results will encourage those concerned about tackling a lighting project to forge ahead.
