    Looks like I'll have to go to a certain other Patrol forum to get the answer!

    I would find the reverse light wire in the loom (check wire colour/number at bulb if need be) and splice into that wire .I would use this as a switching wire to a standard relay pin 85 or 86 as they are both interconnected inside the relay. I would then connect pin 30 to the battery and pin 87 to the wires for the new lights in question, using whichever pin was left over (85 or 86 your choice ) as the earth for the relay.To make the lights work independently it would just be a matter of supplying a power feed to the switch wire already used i cant see an issue with power feeding back down to the original reverse switch as this switch is in the open position already just think of it as wiring in spotlights but going in the other direction .Hope this helps Cheers Adam

    Hey guys..

    Sorry I didn't even check this thread after I wired the lights in. There is a separate thread I made with how I installed them HERE.. CLICK ME CLICK ME

    The diagram above that Ferret posted is pretty good too.
