How to Add Lights to a Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches

Question

Question:

I purchased a DK2 AVAL 8422 plow with the light kit. Will this harness work with the light kit on a 2010 F-150 Lariat? Also, do I need to install the relays you show in the video of the light install on the Jeep? Thank you!

In order to add lights to the Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches part # K2AVAL8422 you'll need a light kit like the Halogen High/Low Beam Light Kit with Turn Signals for Detail K2 Snowplows part # K281488LB2. The light kit comes with lights, brackets, and pigtails. The pigtails will be tied into the factory headlights but you'll indeed need to add relays so you don't overdraw the factory headlight circuits.

Unfortunately, we don't have a plug-in relay harness for this so you'll need to source the relays and extra wires on your own.
