Rabbithunter 456 Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 When you put your rear lights on seperate switch, do you need to cut wires at both sides? Or if i cut one side, does it cut both lights out? If you get what i mean? I know its not the best "explanation" My other option was just putting two small spots on the front powered (and switched) straight from the battery, eliminating the need to switch any lights on. cheers Quote Link to post

Think the idea of a dark back end is so the plod can't see you to catch you? Quote Link to post

rabbit_killer 2 Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 you can run 3 switches, break the rear lights the reverse lights and the break lights all you need to do is source the loom to the rear test whats what and tap in to them mount your switches and job done!!! you will find that some motors earth lights direct to the body so all you need to do is find the live to each set of lights ect and break the live with a switch... if you cant do the earth you can also locate in the fuse box what controls the lights ect and either rig up a switch or some kind of fuse break from there... atb rk Quote Link to post
