Wiring diagram for headlight switch?
I'm going a custom gauge cluster and I'm not going to use the factory headlight switch. I need to know what wires control the marker/cruising lights and the headlights. I'm just going to run them off a toggle switch on a panel. I see the switch has a plug with numbered male ends on the switch. Can someone tell me what is what? Thanks!

I'm assuming the GMCs and Chevys are the same? Thanks for the link!

Re: Wiring diagram for headlight switch?
Also need to consider that the factory headlamp circuit breaker is part of the switch. So if you remove the switch there will be no circuit protection. Even if you are going to add headlamp relays you should plan on a fuse or circuit breaker on the control side.

Great points from both of you. I do realize about the fused part and that will be addressed. Thanks again.
