I'll try and post some this evening, and also more details about the tyres.

Enough light to drive at night with sunglasses? :cool2:
Sounds like over compensation for something to me..........can't imagine what
Some of us just like to be able to see where we're going
Night times meant to be dark ? .challenge accepted

:hysterically_laughi and i thought i looked so good in black.
As i thought might happen, slapped back into place and exposed as the ill-informed charlatan that i am ...
Ok.. I think you may have convinced me to look again at the Rooflights possibility.
No wonder Barclaycard love me....
Cheers Doc..
5 pinner it may need to be
Makes the most sense that way I reckon, but just to state I am running two feeds onto one pin using a splitter but the 5th pin allows for a separate power source.
I believe it works like this (its how mine look to be wired up);
With the 4 pin you have two outputs (to the lights) one earth and one input/power feed that runs from the source (high beam circuit)
With the 5 pin you have two outputs (to the lights) one earth, one input from the signal source and one input direct from battery so its not taking its power direct from the
full beam circuit
P.S. they're great fun for blinding ****ers that don't dip their headlights cos they think you won't do anything about it

Don't think you've got that quite right mate.
A 4 pin relay should have a live to the battery, an output to the load, an earth contact and a low current switched supply.
A 5 pin relay would have a live to the battery, an output to the load when its energised, an output to the load when its de-energised and a low current switched supply.
Unless yours are different of course.
You should also include fuses to protect the relay and wiring.
Ive attached a couple of diagrams which might be more use than me trying to explain it

I think it was me getting confused by the lack of the 5th pin when I was trying to use the 4's
either way the 5 pin ones I'm using are KC relays and they're set up as I described in my post. **** knows about the 4 pins though all I know is that they're off the old high beam circuit from a disco that was getting broken.
Yep one fuse on the power from battery line and one fuse on the switch is how mines done

I guess the KC ones are specials made specifically to do a job.

Would make sense seeing as they're an offroad light manufacturer
I'm not too bothered though as long as they work I couldn't care less :bounce:

Taken delivery of 3 Rhino roof bars complete with load stops and rear roller - really impressed with the build quality - make the Thule bars I've had before look thoroughly flimsy
Ordered a Dixon-Bates Tow Bar kit and Universal Tow Ball - exciting weekend ahead

Try positing on the Disco vehicle forum and include a bit of detail about the model, year etc - you'll get a better answer than within the General Chat section - and i'd give 'Anything Goes a Miss'
Great forum this is, but mixes **** taking and help - new folks get along best if they just roll with it
Likely to be an oil seal or someone's nicked your drain plug!

Made the mistake of checking the slight weep around the sender on the fuel tank - the whole bloody thing is loose! Luckily there's only a couple of gallons in, and I can sort it at the weekend.
One well fooked crossmember:
Interior (still need to add some finishing touches:alloy capping, that sort of stuff, and the dog grille)
The wheels are Goodyear Wrangler MT/R 265/75/16, it might be best if I put them (optomistically) in the 'For Sale' section...
4x Goodyear Wrangler MT/R 265/75/16 on steel rims
