I bought a new backrack and toolbox a few months ago. I just bought this lightbar a few weeks ago and got it all wired up in time for snow. Here are some pics.

What kind of switches are those and where did you get them? Are they toggles or push button?

Nice setup. Next time go with LED instead of strobes. Last longer, less power, less glare, and MUCH brighter.

Thanks

Joe- The bar is a Whelen edge 9000, i paid 400 for it used its only about a yr old.

As for the switches, they are Pilot toggle switches i bought at auto zone for $4 each.
I would have gone with l.e.d but money was tight and i didnt want to drop close to 1k on a bar.

My brother has emergency warning lights in his truck because he is a volunteer fire fighter and he has the exact same switches as you. They look really good. He's got 3--one for strobes, one for LEDs, and a master on/off. Can you take some pics with the light bar on?

I did drill my own holes, only took a few extra minutes. Let me know if you have anymore questions.
Happy Holidays!!

I will take pics or a video with the lightbar on.

The amber light is for visibility and warning other drivers of your presence.

I still like halogen rotators, but LEDs are (technically) better in many ways
