    Get a spring loaded one for when it gets belted by a tree. Had one in an 6610 we had years ago for when we did beet. Wired it into the power for the warning light put a seprate switch in seris so that I could run withou needing the flashers on.

    Drop the panel by holding the radio to see what you have wired in.

    Take a look behind the overhead panel to see what has power up there. If you can find a live feed that can take the extra load of the beacon light, wire your beacon light to it, with a switch in-line. That's the simplest way.

    Otherwise, take a live feed up from the back of the ignition (and inline switch) - just a bit more work with routing cables, but not complicated.
