Found several on the passenger’s side but am unsure on the driver’s side. Is this one? If not, where would I look.

Got the KC lites on the Jeep, the wires run up the firewall and will connect next weekend. Thanks for the help.

Maybe there’s a reason but why don’t the aftermarket switches , like the Voswitch, have a ground point for devices attached to it. Its grounded to the battery.

Because it would have to be a BIG ground wire from those switches to handle the ground of all devices. Imagine 4 devices each pulling 10 amps. That ground would have to handle 40 amps if you ran them all at the same time.
It would need a very hefty ground for all possible device combinations. The ground has to handle the exact same amperage as the red wire.
