Where is factory LED on/off output?

Adding a drain plug LED light on 2020 VLX.  Where is the factory terminal that power this?

Does a boat that didn't comp with LED underwater lights already have a relay to switch the power or do I need to add one?

Thanks for the help in advance51pNtgcFi6L._AC_SL1000_.jpg

You can enable the Icon on the small screen. This will allow the CanBus system to communicate with the RGB Module (that you don't have in your boat). 

You'll need the module (~$400 last I saw) and wiring to make it work with factory control.

OR

You can get a aftermarket RGB controller to run it, but you won't have factory integration. 

Wetsounds controller or another Cheaper Wetsounds controller.

OR one of China's best RGB controllers on Amazon but don't expect it to last very long.

Thank you for the reply.

It sounds like this may be a winter project instead of a weeknight...

Does the malivu/viper system have any "free" on off outputs (that just power 12V to a wire when switched)?
