Many people have been asking how and where to connect in for additional power supply for accessories on this forum. I have attached a schematic of a basic supply system using a switched relay using the Honda Accessory Sub Harness. The relay can be purchased for a few dollars from Amazon or most any auto parts store. This allows switching a large amount of amps using a very small amount of switched amps.

The schematic shows the power being supplied from the battery. I actually used my winch control solenoid for battery supply power because it was located close to the fuse panel.

Hope this may help if you plan on adding accessories.

Thanks for posting this. Do you have a link or specs on the relay?

Amazon.com: Parts Express 12 VDC Waterproof Relay SPDT 30/40A with Metal Bracket: Car Electronics

This should be the link. The page also has the wiring harness plug and in line fuse listed under frequently bought together.

How does the winch relay fit into that diagram?

Much appreciated

I did not show the winch control but it would be in place of the battery. The winch control is just being used as an extension of the battery via the battery cables supplying voltage to the control because of it's location to my relay.

This is the actual picture of the winch control and relay and fuse.

White Park:
Could you show us some more pictures of your home made rocker panel switch cover and go into detail where you purchased the items to make this great looking add-on.
