i have an '06 hawkeye 300 and want more lights on mine. how do i wire them up? to i just cut the wires going from the mounted lights and wire it up, or is it more complex than that? also, can i get more powerful light bulbs for my hawkeye?

 

i put a driving light kit on my s-man, there are two 55 watt lights adn all the wiring and a swithch. the two 55 wat lights are great for seeng the trail @ night and the don't put to much draw on the battery.

 

well, could i just buy some lights from wal mart and wire the lights up in the same circuit as the built in lights?

 

really don't know the output capabilities of the hawkeye but to put it on the same circuit as the existing would not be a good idea because you don't know if the switch and wiring is capable and you would always have all the lights going. I would reccomend additional wiring and switch like huntinquad did imo.

 

well, i dont have the money to burn $40 on wires and mounts. is this something that i could get some wires and switches from radioshack and do it myself?

 

i wired up 2 - 55 watt driveing lights and if i have my lights on and turn them the batt light will start flashing on my pod..but then again my batt is 3 years old..

 

you pretty much have to buy a quad batery every year, they just dont last, especially if the quad is stored outside!

 

so where did you install the light kit. i want to do it and was wondering a good local.

thanks

 

i made a roll bar and basket that attaches to the front rack and i welded a couple of tabs on it for the lights and a couple more for an additional rifle holder.

 

well, would i be able to wire up an additional battery for some additional lights? what i was thinking so that i can use one or the other set of lights or both at the same time is put another battery inside one of the front storage boxes and just use a simple positive and negative wire setup between 2 lights and put the wires through the drainage hole in the storage compartment. i have one of those "motorcycle batteries" that is like the stock battery but is rectangular and just has a + and - rods on the same end. it is 12V. will this work?
