Hi Folks, I have a 12 Volt 8N, Front Dist. and do not have light 1 on it. I'd like to put a rear light on at least. Do they sell a rear for a fender mount ? any pictures that I can see, and does it run to a toggle switch or something else?
Not sure if the front lights would hold up to my style of brush-hoggin. If I put fron lights on, can I run through the same switch ? Many questions, I know. Thanks.

Since you already are on a working 12v system.. you can use any 12v light with mounts compatible to your setup. TSC carries lots of styles.

If you have the 8n bumper, cobble up a bracket behind it, and mount the front lights lower so that the bumper protects them.

Use a switch and wire that will handle the wattage / amperage of your lights.

How many switches you use is up to you. Personally I would have the rear light on a seperate circuit, that way I'm not wasting power on a rear light if I'm not using it.

Some may suggest a relay. That is optional. If you know what you are doing.. but if you don't use a relay.. make sure your switch handles the amperage. and watch your wire routing, and do use fuses or fusable links.. or circuit breakers... be safe.. dont want a big hot wire to burn a hole in the gas tank....and then blow you up...
