Default Upfitter switches for lightbar

Anybody have a good link to "how to connect to upfitter switches"?

I plan on adding a 20" LED light bar and want to use the switches.

Feel free to recommend light bars as well. Looking for the brightest light I can find. Thanks

I use AUX1 for a 30" single row light bar mounted in my grill. Brings 12k lumen of turn night into day brightness at the flip of a switch

Thanks for the info.

12000 lumens should be bright as hell!

Update to the light bar; went with the cheap 20" version and it puts out 13000lumens. It makes quite the difference.

Looks great! How bad was wiring the upfitter switches? I Am not use to pre existing switches.

I need to stop being lazy and install my 50" (21k lumens) and 40" (9600 lumens) bars that have been sitting in my garage since I traded my F150 in. Trying to wait until I install a ARE Camper shell.

Wiring was pretty simple. It took some time to find the harness ends. The one in the engine compartment is tough to reach and they don't give you much wire length to work with but I'm not complaining. Still easier than running everything myself.
I may look at upgrading to the light bar that's intragrated to the grill but quite expensive.
