Lighting please help

[perry386]

I am wiring some orange lights into the air intake grill on the side of my 230. I am not quite sure how to wire them though. Should I go directly to the batteries or splice the wire into one of the factory installed courtesy lights?

Any help would be appreciated

Perry,

Exterior lighting on a boat, that is not a red, green or white that's visible at the correct locations, can draw unwanted attention from the officials. For that reason, I like to put that kind of lighting on a dedicated toggle switch. With low current draw accent lighting, you should be able to draw your B+ off the courtesy lighting circuit with a fused wire to the hot side of your new toggle. from the switched side of the toggle, run to your lights B+. Run the lights GND to the helm's GND BUSS bar.

The LEDs in my vents are hooked to the interior courtesy lights, works great for my use patterns.
