Can you just hook them up to your boat wiring system or do you need to use the extra wiring harness with relay

I would highly advise using the extra harness and relay. Otherwise your lights will flicker when the boat is off and without a relay there is a higher probability for something to go wrong, could result in a fire even. They will work without a relay, I just highly suggest you use a relay.

if you just hook up 2 you can hook them up with out a relay. Be sure to use a fuse in the circuit.

I didn't run a relay. Just a wire from battery to the hot side of a switch with an inline fuse. Then from the switch to one red wire on a light. Then wired lights together. Then ran another wire for ground and connected it to both black wires. Super easy to install. Great lights.

I would day it is best to use a relay, unless youuse aheavy dutyswitch. Most switches are not designed to handle a load running through them, even though these lights only use about 5 amps to run both.

If you're car has day light running lights you will need just a relay harness

They work well but your going to need to buy extra wires to splice into these. I wired mine into my fuse box on the accessory fuse with a little adapter, and just grounded out the other end.

i didn't needed a kit since i was installing it on my boat, it's just a pos/neg connection and i was done. if you connect it to your house then you needed a converter kit.

I bought the unit for my boat but havent hooked it up yet. There is one that comes with the unit but if you change antennas I think you will have to put a new connection on the one you buy to make it work with the BOYO. You can use the connection off the included antenna and solder it to the new antenna wires, Good luck

I actually have the same set up, I used 2 kawell relays wiring harness. 1 for each set of lights.

Hi Jake, you will need the wiring kit which contains the relay, the horn voltage is too much for the horn switch and you must use the relay, its not much, about 12 bucks,iirc.

They go to a separate Relay... (integrated) I have them on my Jeep, they draw too many amps.. Its best to wire them with the relay and separate switch it comes with. Good chance burning up your system...

I think they should plug right into your OEM harness is you already have the wiring for the two horns. I may be wrong but I don't think you'd need a relay unless you were going from 1-2 horns. You may have to change the connectors if they are of a different style. These horns are good and loud.

I had my camera installed but I don't think that they needed any other wiring. I don't see any charges for additional parts. I had my camera installed to be on all the time so I can keep an eye on the tow vehicle as my motorhome is 30' long.

They can be hooked together. You need to buy the connectors (come in a pack if 5 I believe). You can connect as many strands as u need to make it the length you need. I put them on my boat around the salon and up radar arch.

No, the unit should be hooked to your boat battery, via the console instrument panel, or sending unit, check your boat manual for hook up directions. Mine had an older model and i just hooked the new one where the old one hooked up under instrument panel.

they are pre-wired and very simple to install....you can splice to existing harness or run directly to trailer plug.

The package doesn't include the harness. You can either use the car's factory wiring or, if you want to use the included relay, run your own wiring under the hood.

They come with the relay you goin to need.and yes you can install them with or with out alarm i used my alarm good luck.its not a hard job but it takes time and little bit of electic skills.,i took me a hole day.

Not at all. just need to determine where your gonna intercept the ignition power so unit only powers up when key is on (boat is running). I got under the console of my bass boat to the backside of instrument panel where ignition is and spliced on there. I used volt meter to test power to the wire by turning key on and off before I spliced.

The way the relay works is that it senses the voltage of your starting battery and when it reaches a certain level it switches over to charge your house battery. That way only one battery is being charged at any given time unless you have the switch in the combine position. I would not recommend operating in combine mode as it is intended to assist with starting should your starting battery die. Doing so may damage your stator. If your outboard is equipped with a charging circuit this should work just fine. Being a 70hp I'm sure it is.
