Hello! I recently installed 4 KC Apollo pro 6” lights on my tj and since they came in pairs (I bought two pairs) each pair has a wiring harness that I have wired to the factory round switches. I want to use this Nilight switch box I bought instead of the factory round switches. Is this possible? The wiring from the switch box has 3 accessory wires and only one power wire and one ground wire. Where as the wiring harness for the kc lights have 3 wires that are supposed to connect to each switch (green, white and black wire) what is the best way i can connect the wiring to the Nilight switches considering there is only one wire coming from each switch rather than 3? I’m good with doing one switch per pair or one switch for all 4, whatever is easiest!!! See pictures below.

The power and ground for each switch is internal to the box. Attach one power and ground to the box then attach each light wire to the box. Cap or disconnect the other power and ground from the second switch
Ok thanks, so I only need to connect the power and ground wire from one out of the two harnesses to the box and then the other harness I just cap the power and ground? Will this still supply power to both wire harnesses and both pairs of lights? Thanks for the help!
Okay so I did this, and it works, but the box stays on even without the key in the ignition. How do I get it to turn on only when the key is in the ignition or running?
use a switched power (accessory) 12 volts in Acc,run positions but 0 volts during cranking. You can find this behind the radio or possibly one of the power ports (cig lighter)
Can the extra auxiliary switched wire behind the glove box handle it?? They are 4 kc Apollo pro 6” the tag on it says 3 amps max so is that too much for it to handle??
