Disco Matt:
You can buy the proper LR front foglight switches cheaply enough on ebay. They do need a special connector but mine already had one as part of pre-installed front foglight wiring, so I just rewired it to switch the relay for the spots.

Jeff J J:
I thought about going down the landrover front fog light switch but the hole playing with the wires at the back of the switch just put me of to many dramas for this call sign.

Disco Matt:
They're really simple to trace - mine had a white wire that didn't go anywhere (just looped through a bulkhead grommet), an earth, and two feeds from the sidelights. One of these was to allow the switch to make the white wire live, the other powers the illumination on the switch. I just connected the right one to the full beam feed, and the white wire to the spotlight relay.

I can go and check which was which if you want - it's in the RAVE manual though. The wire colours were wrong but the pinout for the plug was correct.

Has anyone seen this for sale?  As I'm after some black chequer plate for my bonnet too!  (I stand on it quite a lot & the glare from my lights is a pain in the . . . . !!)

Hi all.

I dont know what u'll think about it but as i was strapped for cash i made my light bar from the cross bar on the standered disco roof bars.
Im making some brackets that fit to the top of the bar form round the roof bars then back under and bolts though the bar to stop folk from nickin um.

There only 55watters but there bright enough and u dont get the glare on the window and bonnet. :)

So what u all think then?   [-o<
