An induction power transfer system for auxiliary vehicle lights is provided. A transmitting power module coupled to an interior surface of a windshield includes a transmitting induction coil. The transmitting induction coil generates an oscillating magnetic field in response to receiving an electric current. A receiving power module is coupled to an exterior surface of the windshield of the vehicle. The receiving power module is substantially aligned with the transmitting power module coupled to the interior surface of the windshield. The receiving power module includes a receiving induction coil. The receiving induction coil generates an alternating electric current in response to a presence of the oscillating magnetic field. An auxiliary vehicle LED light coupled to an exterior surface of the vehicle is connected to the receiving power module by an insulated conductor. The receiving power module supplies the alternating electric current to the auxiliary vehicle LED light.
