Wiring Spotlights

Guy · Post by **Guy** » Fri Aug 04, 2006 1:45 pm

A friend recently gave me a pair of ol spotties for my L Series (nothing else included). I don't know much about wiring. I'd like to know what I'd need in terms of switches, relays and how conect it all together. Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks.

Best option is to buy the complete package from an auto shop. They include wiring, relay, switch and instructions. I bought one last year and so much easier than cutting wire, fitting connections etc etc. Got mine from Independent Motor Mart.

You use the outside 2 wires as the signals for the relays

when i fitted my spotties i ran both spotties to earth & to the relay
ran the relay to earth
ran the relay to the battery through a fuse
relay to the switch
ran the switch to the hibeam on the lights
