Wiring Experts....Help Needed!

$

I’m in the process of adding a few accessories such as LED brush guard lights, winch, horn, & illuminated rocker switches to my XUV 550 and need a little help to achieve my objectives.

First, how can I avoid having a ton of wires all running to the positive terminal of the battery to power the accessories and switches. I’m trying to avoid a “rat’s nest” on the battery.

Second, my headlight switch has 3 positions: Off, Brake Light On, & both Brake Light and Headlights On. I’d like all of my rocker switches to illuminate when I turn on my rear brake light (“Stealth Mode” lol) and also stay on if I flick to the next position of both the Brake Light and headlights on.

As if that’s not enough, I’d like both LED’s (upper and lower) in the rocker switch to illuminate at the same time (when Brake and/or headlights are on), regardless of weather or not that switch is in use.

The dash on my 550 is very plain and very dark at night. Some colorful light would be a welcomed sight and also assist in knowing which switch I’m looking for at that moment.

In summary, I’d like to avoid a “rat’s nest” of wires at the battery and I’d like all of my rocker switches to fully illuminate when either the brake and or head lights are on.

I’m definitely not an electrician. Are these goals possible? I’ve attached a pic of the style of rocker switch I’d like to install. Thank you!
