Kingpin V-Series 12-volt Light Bar Installation Guide

MOUNTING OPTIONS

Kingpin's V-Series lights come with aluminum mounting brackets: 3.75"L x 1.125"W spaced 35.25" or 12" center to center for the 40" and 12", respectively.

Recommended mounting methods: 

    • VHB Tape. Most common and preferred for most applications.
    • #6 or #8 screws, 8 Total (4 holes per mounting bracket)
    • Quick-release option: Velcro 

POWER SOURCE 

Any 12-volt power source can be used to power the V-Series Light Bars. 

    • The low 1.4A power draw on the 40" & 0.5A on the 12" allows you to safely piggyback it into many existing circuits (ex. a rear brake light).
    • Add any style of plug or adapter to the factory cable if you'd like (cigarette adapters are commonly used) 
    • You can also wire on a 12V-120V transformer to power them with a traditional AC outlet.

WIRING 

V-Series light bars come with an exterior rated 18-gauge wire lead. The lead length is the same as the light itself. Simply connect the ground wire (black -) to a common ground or negative battery terminal and then connect the positive wire (red +) to the power source.

It's always safest to add a small fuse (sized to match your light power draw +20%) inline on the positive wire, as close to the battery or power supply as possible.
