Looking at taking the original body off a pickup and building a custom one. Straight forward enough but I wondered about the electrics - is it just the case of buying a led light board for example and wiring it up?

 

My first thoughts are it seems logical enough to just remove a bulb/wire at a time and connect/solder up to the corresponding wire on the light board.

 

Is there any easier/quicker/better way? Any thoughts?

There are regulations as to the height spacing and brightness for vehicle lights,if you get it WRONG you may be in trouble with the vosa boys.ps dont ask me what the regs are

Depends which pickup.

Mine you can take the back off and the lights stay on, if they don't then there is usually a plug somewhere to disconnect them.

I would use this plug and maybe a bit of the old harness to rewire.
