MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Light Unit/Permanent Mount

Determine the location for the light on your vehicle or boat.

Remove the mounting plate from the light. Center the mounting

plate with the vise screw on the mounting plate to the back. Mark

the hole locations for the three mounting screws and drill a pilot

hole for each with 1/8 inch bit. Fasten the stainless steel mounting

plate with the 3 #10 – 16x3/4 type AB cross recessed pan head

tapping screws. Drill a 1/4” hole (wireless) or a 5/8” hole (hard-

wired) in the center of the mounting plate opening to accommodate

the power wire or wiring harness and connector. Attach the

connector that is affixed to the underside of the light to the

corresponding connector on the wiring harness (hard-wired).

Position the connection point beneath the mounting surface, and

apply silicone sealant around wire to seal the drilled opening.
Wet the mounting surface with a small amount of water or

lubricant for easier installation, then place the light over the

mounting plate by sliding the front of the light over the front of the

mounting plate, first pull the light backwards, then seat the back of

the light on to the mounting plate. Displace the back of the gasket

and install the vise screw (provided). Tighten the vise screw using a

Phillips head screwdriver. Replace the gasket.

Light Unit/Magnetic Mount

Select the best location on your vehicle for the magnetic mount

Stryker. Make sure the metal area under the magnetic base is flat

and clean to ensure a strong bond. Route the power cord into the

vehicle through a door frame and connect to 12V power outlet. The

magnetic mount Stryker™ should be removed from vehicle’s exterior

while traveling at excessive speeds and in strong wind conditions.
Dash Control/Permanent Mount

Determine the appropriate location for the dash mount control and

create a 2 inch opening to accommodate the cylinder on the rear

of the remote. Remove the outer rubber cover and affix the control

to the dash with the four screws provided. The word ”TOP” is

embossed on the control and should be situated accordingly. All

wiring should be undertaken with power removed from the system.

First, attach the connector that is affixed to the control to the

corresponding connector on the wiring harness. Next, join the leads

at the remote to 12volt DC power with appropriate automotive wire

attachments; the red wire is the positive lead and the black wire

is the negative lead--the unit is polarity sensitive and care must be

taken to observe this. Note: Once power is applied to the system

the light will pan and tilt prior to bulb illumination. As a safety

feature, the control is backlit to indicate bulb illumination only.
Each spotlight needs to be wired on a single dedicated circuit and

the power fused at 5 amps. With the power connected, your light is

ready for operation.
Wireless Dash Control

If you have a wireless dash control, please note that it is vital for

this to be attached to a flat / smooth surface with the 4 mounting

screws included. The arrow under the rubber cover should point up.
BATTERY INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL FOR TRANSMITTER

Remove battery cover: for wireless hand-held transmitter, remove

phillips head screw to remove cover. For wireless dash mount

remote, simply remove the exterior rubber cover. With battery

compartment now exposed, insert batteries according to the correct

polarity or gently remove batteries by grabbing the positive end and

lifting up.
PROGRAMMABLE REMOTE INSTRUCTIONS

The Golight® Stryker™ is controlled with a programmable

remote with 2187 different channels. This feature allows you

the freedom to change the channel selection, and the receiver

re-learns the new selection. This light has been pre-programmed

at the factory, and it is not necessary to re-program the transmitter,

unless you experience outside interference. To program transmitter:
1. IMPORTANT: Disconnect power.
2. Remove battery cover from remote control.

3. Set the 7 dip switches to a selection of your choice. There are 3

positions on each; positive, negative and neutral. Use a small

screwdriver and select a position for each dip switch. *Please

note that the orientation of the +/- switch positions may vary

among different models of wireless remote controls.
4. Insert both GP 23A 12V batteries. Be sure batteries have

adequate charge.
5. Replace battery cover.
a. Depress the on/off button and hold it down. Red LED will

light.
b. While holding the on/off button down, reinstall the power
(replace fuse or connect vehicle battery).
c. Keep on/off button depressed for 5-6 seconds, and

then release. The light should now be programmed.
OPERATION OF STRYKER™

1. Using the remote control, turn on the light by depressing the on/

off button.

2. With the joystick on the dash control, rotate your light to the

desired location.

the fast/slow button one time and by depressing it again to

restore the original speed.

4. The hard wired dash control will be backlit when the bulb is

illuminated.
