While the above is an option, it's also expensive.

Best thing to do is sit down and figure out what you want and where you want it. Make yourself a layout of that with the number of switches, what they control, how many batteries how you want them hooked up etc. Then post here and we can help you figure out how to wire it.

Here is a couple of diagrams I did for a member after he posted what he wanted. Haven't heard from him sense so not sure how it turned out.
