Question:

i purchased a bul72cb utility light recently. i will be using it as an auxillary/flood light to put into the center of my headache rack. i will control it from inside the pickup with a switch. can i use a two prong plug - for power and ground or do i have to somehow use a three prong plug as there are three prong plug in on the back of the light. if so how would i hook up the two wires other than the ground wire. this will be the only light i will be hooking up to switch. thank you, duane.

The light part # BUL72CB does use a three prong connector but in reality you only end up using two of the prongs. One for power and one for ground. The connector needed is the part # A45CB which can easily be used with a switch.
