Who has factory installed work lights? I am looking for pictures of the switches and where the switches are located. Thanks!

The factory lights come with switches in the light. There is no seperate switch for the work lights. Kind of mickey mouse in my opinion.:2cents::thumbdown:

I had a factory work light but ditched it for 4 LED work lights that I feed from the circuit that formerly supplied the rear work light. I have 2 facing front and 2 facing rear. 27 watt LED Flood pattern.

I like that switch location and will be my second choice if I can't find something very close to the hazard light switch.

That is disappointing. I'm not too surprised because when I tested the factory plug for the work lights it is always hot, so I wondered if the factory lights didn't have an integral switch.

Do yo have any pictures of how/where you mounted your lights and switches? I have my rear lights mounted already and think I know where I'm gonna mount the fronts but I can change it if there is something better out there.

Nice thing about this location, room for two switches, one for front lights, one for back lights, and VERY EASY to wire up. Philip.

The only thing that kind of holds me back from mounting the switches there is I was thinking of putting a combo boost & egt gauge there. Although trying to find good locations to mount extra gauges on these tractors is a whole other thread.

I have been wanting to add work light to my tractor too. I tend to over research my options, and having looked at a lot of threads on it, I think Phillip8N has one of the cleanest implementations I have seen on a Kubota. Nice work!

Wmonroe, which make of lights are you installing? I am leaning toward LED floods, but haven't pulled the trigger yet....
