Finally finished re-wiring the added accessories. I never liked the idea of running power wires thru a switch directly to the item. So I added a relay panel; behind the companion seat.
Control panel L to R: Bar Light, Running lights, back up light, back up horn, cameras (future) and crane.
Didn't wire the back-up to come on when selecting reverse as there are time when I might need them without selecting reverse.
Power is through resetable CBs.

Relay panel as well as control panel are installed with connectors so easily removed.

Relays are mounted behind companion protected from anything thrown under the seat. (Still working on this cover).

I did not go to the overhead as I did not like access for the wire run. There is a hole in the center windshield structure on the top but nothing on the bottom. Windshield could be folded and a new hole drilled on the bottom and larger hole drilled on the top. This would be prefect, except I have a fiberglass top that wraps over the windshield frame so would have to be pretty much removed. Then if I ever wanted to run with the top off and WS down I would have to disconnect everything. May do this when I add camera and radio, not sure yet.
