You need to give us the low down on your lights. I have no idea where to start to get the lighting you have. Please tell us what kind, where located, how it's bracketed, cost etc if you have time.
So all of my lighting, plus the valve for my extra fuel tank, are controlled with a SwitchPros. $450ish
Stock crap Ram headlights,
30" Rough Country Black Series bar on the front bumper - $200 LINK
Baja Designs S2 Pros Hood mounted Combo pattern - $340 LINK
Aux Beam Side Shooter Pods (2 Pair) mounted on the sides of the rack, used rivnuts in the rack to bolt lights to it. - $30 a set LINK These throw better light then the rigids below,
Rigid Radience (Amber back lit) mounted on rear of rack. I also have the amber back lit wired to my parking lights. Looks cool. I think i paid $110 - LINK

This was a several month project of seeing a need in the field and filling it.
The SwitchPros is great! It installs super clean.

Thank you. You have quite a bit invested in lighting but it does a really good job it looks like.

I feel that in most cases you get what you pay for. I have several cheap pods that are complete crap. One exception to this is the AuxBeams. I am very impressed with them.
The problem I have found is that there are very few real world images of the lights in use. I even emailed Rigid and Baja Designs for pictures, they had none. Was very disappointed.

Do you pups sleep in the tent with you?
Yes they do! I have them travel from the front bumper with my storage boxes as a ramp then use a carpet stair runner to keep their nails from scratching and sliding on the paint. I attached an image below to better show it.

Nice we use a ramp, I should’ve thought about the storage boxes before. They’re already used to the ramp I wouldn’t want to switch it up on them now. Also we use a couple cheap padded yoga mats to keep their nails off the paint.

I did some work the past couple of days. 2 switches and an outlet with 2 USBs, 12v, and volt meter. Boxes installed and wired up a fuse box for all of my leds and accessories. Including a dual usb plug in my center console and a 12v outlet behind the rear seat for the solar panel. Also installed some running boards and painted my chrome rear bumper.
