Ordered mine last night! Got them with the harness, but when I eventually put in AUX switches, I'll hook them up to use either.

It was mentioned earlier somewhere and I thought that was a great idea!

If you are gong to connect to the Aux switch you are just going to need 18 AWG insulated primary cable like this. The Aux switches just have bare cable ends so there is no way to make that a "plug and play" option so you just need a length of cable to get from the reverse lights to the fuse box area where the Aux leads are. .

All Oracle is saying is basically this:
Your lights will come with two bare wires and each of the 4 aux switches has two bare wires. So you just need a length of wire to get from the lights to the aux switch wires. That’s it, believe it or not, that simple. What they are suggesting is a better insulated wire.

I’d also suggest you get some solder seal wire connections and marine grade shrink tubing. The marine grade has a glue on the inside that seals off everything and makes it waterproof.

Just ordered with the 15% off and the harness. I'm going to run the diode and wiring to my AUX 4 switch as well

Ordered and can't wait. Though the child in me wonders if you are joking with the dates. Order by April Fools day, first sign. Second sign ships on 4-20, aka weed day. lol

Did they list anywhere what gauge wire to use on these? Want to make sure I have everything ready for an aux switch install.

Did you order the harness with the lights? Regardless, your work will be appreciated
I did not order the harness.
So my write up will be how I install to the back up signal and Aux switch.
