Use a scotchlock connector
Nooooooooooo!
Just looking for something to reverse by, currently have a 6m candle light torch strung on inside of back of truck.the NAS spec reverse light is better than standard td5 light, and cheapand easy to fit. Still not exactly a headlight though
Not a scotchlock then.....would I need a separate relay to run one off the x mem? Ran wiring through inside roof and spliced into aux (god knows what the feed was for but it was not doing anything else) for SIIA.Scotchlock is fine.
Assuming you have a fire extinguisher on board![]()
Thanks for making it clearer; not used to TD5's - bit of a leap from old Rosy (SIIA). My cousin give me a box of connectors - Ampseal and Superseal - think Ampseal may be the one?I only suggested the scotchlock to splice in a wire to switch the relay, not to run the lamp!
On the later vehicles with moulded plug connectors your a bit short of means and space to add wiring. On an older vehicle with bullet connectors this isn't such a problem.
thats a perfectly ascceptable way ,scotch locks while not necessarily the best have been used for years especially on tow bar lighting sockets etc ,reverse light relay switch is low current and short occasional use,the simplest option for a lot of peopleYou can bolt any kind of worklight/fog light on the rear crossmember and run a new fused power supply to it.
Use a scotchlock connector to add a wire from the existing reversing light wiring to a relay which will activate the light. Easy to wire up, you just have to locate the light somewhere suitable and route the cables with care. Not in a position to comment on the legal/MOT technicalities though.
