For those with prewired aux. Can you help me sort out my rigid ditch light wires. So I think I will use the lo pigtail in the engine bay for this. Do I discard the battery part of the wiring and just attach the wire from the ditch light straight to the pigtail?

First, you need to understand the amp draw from the lights. Then you simply run the appropriate guage wire from the lights. There will only be a positive and ground. The ground can be wired directly to any ground spot in the engine bay. You run the positives to the power source. If using an aux switch to direct connect to the ditch lights, make sure you pick the proper switch with the correct amp rating.
If using the switch to power a relay, then use the lowest amp rated one (aux 3 or 4)

Here is my Arb compressor install video that discusses aux wiring in depth and I use the aux switch to trigger the unit to turn on. Then it uses the direct connection to the battery to power on. Not ditch lights but hopefully this helps.
