I know oracle has a mirror cap that has a ditch light. I don’t know if you can use them with the high/Lux package.

I'd like to just use the one that's built in. Not as bright as an aftermarket light, but it's already built in and costs zero $$.

I was disappointed last night when I turned on my factory on-the-mirror ditch lights to look for a lost neighbor dog. They shut off at 6 mph. No good for me. I'd like to wire them into an aux switch for manual shutoff at any speed. Anyone here done this? The other forum has a hack but it isn't completely clear to me.
BTW, badlands with lux and lift kit.

Do you have a link to the hack? And I hope your neighbor found their dog; thanks for being a part of the search!

If I had to guess on a hack, I wonder if it could be accomplished by using Forescan.

I agree, and I feel like I read that thread recently. Hoping someone might be able to fill in the gaps for @weej.

I gave them a little flip flop; thanks for adding. This isn't the one I was thinking of, so I'll dig around in case I find other threads.

Thanks so much! I wonder how many of us don't even know they have built-in ditch lights.
