Safari Driving Lamps
« on: December 28, 2004, 01:05:39 »
I have a set of land rover driving lamps (I took them off my old Freelander before I sold it!!) which I'd like to fit to the Freelander I have now - a 2.0 Tdi. This vehicle doesn't have the wiring. Would anyone know how to wire these in or do I need to purchase the wiring from Land Rover (ouch!)  :(
Thanks
Esther

The easiest and least destructive way is to wire them direct from the battery, via a fuse and relay or fused relay, which I prefer.  All you will need to do is take one wire to the main beam of your headlamps and connect with a scotchlock (a tool of satan) or other more reliable method. The other wires to the relay are a ground, the battery feed and power to the lamps, which are then grounded also.
Sorry if this is a bit Janet and Jane but electrics are not everyone's thing, if so you can buy a ready made wiring kit from places like Halfords.
