Got a set of the roolite xxx driving lights. Knocked up a little lighting control box with parts from Jaycar and a bit of angle bracket.
Parts used: -sealed ABS enclosure
- 30 Amp relay
- relay socket
- SPDT 3 position switch (plan to later add fog lights, the switch will then select between
driving/none/fog)
- 2 waterproof cable glands
- a few metres of 20amp pvc insulated cable. Each light draws about 10 amps but 20amp
cable keeps the resistance right down
- leftover speaker wire for the switch to relay.
- fuse socket
- 20A fuse
- cut piece of angle bracket
- solder lugs
- heatshrink
- terminal block
- 2 x 6mm screws. There are two tapped holes in the engine bay near the brake booster,
this seemed the perfect spot to mount the control box.
