Unless you want to cheat :o and have the brightest edge bar in your area- I ran a 25c/18awg cable to a breakout block in the bar, then in the truck is an ISP188- running 8 heads and BLINDING day or night! I've had many call my bluff on it, but when I turn it on, they can't stand to look @ it!

There really isn't any documentation available to show the complete breakdown of the lightbar. If you work with them, then your best bet would be to study one you have. I'll just make a suggestion that you buy the bar the way you want it complete, it will cost significantly more if you piece it together.
