... So I can install HIDS in the rear with a toggle switch, no problem with fuses?
Yes, I think so with no worries. As long as you pull from the Aux post under the hood which is by default fused at 30amp. I would really recommend the 30amp cicuit breaker though. I picked the 30amp breaker instead of a 20amp because HIDs only run about 5-6 amps each when running, but the initial warm up period sucks up a little over 10 amps each. Enough to trip a 20amp fuse or breaker. At least mine do. I would use a relay with hids, don't wire it directly to the switch. Currents are high enough at warm up to melt shit if there is a problem. Maybe even use #10 wire on the run to the back of the truck. I've watched 40amps melt #14 wire. Safety first eh.

ok geek i understand but dont at the sme time lol can u explain ti to me a little better, im trying to picture on my head what you want me to do lol..
Sure, no worries.
From what I understand, you already have tapped into the reverse circuit at the back of your truck. And you already have the relay installed. Perfect!
So, extend the wire that your using to tap into the reverse lights at the back of the truck, and run that along the frame to the front of the truck, under the hood.
You already have a wire running from the dash switch to the relay terminal #86, so just splice the wire you just ran, into terminal #86 as well.
Terminal #86 is the input trigger for the relay. You can have as many inputs as you want. In this case you want a toggle switch - done, and the reverse lights - done. you can have the parking lights as a trigger, high beams, wipers, anything that you can think of, just keep adding wires to terminal #86 as required.
