Bling Lights

djdigitald · 29th May 2008, 10:27 AM

Looking to fit some new lights. Nothing fancy but they run through a controller and have a +'ve and -'ve feed. If i wanted to fit them to a switch on the dash instead of just having them controlled by the controller how would i go about it?

I have had Ivory's lights fitted to separate switches it meant removing parts of the dash but was worth it

Wiring from the tubes goes up through the engine hatch

All lights are powered through a separate fuse box fitted under the bonnet

With the central point for the under body lights fitted near by

Hardest part was finding a fixing point for the rear Under body tube because of towbar so attached it in front of the rear axle

I disconnected the front fog lights and used the power running to the back of the bulbs,that way you have a switch already on the dash,same can be done for side and rear lighting by using power running to rear fog light then again switch already on dash,Nick.
