Wiring spots to main beam.
Ja1983:
i have 4 lights on my light bar, two (centre) spots, and outer fogs (wide beam angle) both pairs are wired and switched seperatley, and in use this is one of my better discisions! i find the centres just illuminate the dash, and theres too much glare, but the fogs on the side are useful as they illuminate the area around the front wings very well..
both are fed from main beam (if unsure take a bulb, trace which prong the main beam (the filament outside the cup) and then i connected further up, above the inner wing, where i mounted the relays) its worth using the illuminated switches too, but mount them low down, as they can be a bit intimidating if they are high up on the dash!
top tip - 35x35mm angle aluminium from homebase (B&Q only do 30x30) makes a perfect mounting bracket, mine are screwed to the dash just under the cig lighter socket. i`ll get some pics when motivation and daylight are simultaneously in my favour :angel:

Meant to update this before now but what with work i totally forgot aout it, wired as per Karlo's diagram except that terminal 85 is wired into mainbeam and work brill. When mot comes around i'll just disconnect a wire :-k. Next job is to fit the work/flood lights on top at the front and rear as my vehicle is now eing used for work,watch this space.

Andy if their on an a-bar at front of the grill they will be legal as long as they come on and go off with main beam.
