Work lights

I have wired the lights in such a way that i can have them switched off, switched on or switched to come on when reverse is selected. Switch located in driver cockpit.

Note that the side repeaters have not yet been delivered!

Here's an interior snap. It is more tan, but the pic makes it look orange!

Future mods will be more sound deadening and under body protection. Also hoping to get good ideas on here Very Happy [/img]

Good God Shocked

I had a single RS-8 on the front of my X-Tech and the output was astonishing. With two, night must become day. Fiat lux Thumbs Up

Enjoy,

Ok, just one pic. I wonder if the military would give me a 50cal turret for use as a permanent fixture?

Indicators and sidelights now installed Very Happy

Noticed that the LED indicator relay doesn't make the 'clicking' sound when in use?? Any way it all works fine.

Get the tools out.

Best way to get access tot he rear of the lamps was to remove the outer wheel arch. The new lights are fixed from the rear.
