Yep. Just trying to be helpful, so someone who does not drive on sites wired up to the fogs and then gets pulled by plod when they've put them in the road.
Hey ho.
I still like the look though. There was one flash pattern the alternates left right without a strobe effect that I thought very effective.Sill protection - LED internal lights - LED reverse lights - boot liner - Dog Guard - Rock sliders

Wiggs already mentioned where he drives and the RVL generally don't apply to private land. It was really aimed at others who might want to copy.Sill protection - LED internal lights - LED reverse lights - boot liner - Dog Guard - Rock sliders

Does putting a blue allders carrier bag over a stolen roadworks beacon and driving down the road at night with it on top of your mate's sierra in 1991 sit within the legislation? MY15 DIY Black Pack (Better than factory and half the price!)

Just resurrecting this thread, how did you connect to the lamps at the back?
Many thanks

Spliced into the rear light loom .. but put a separate connector on so the back lights can still easily be removedG4 Gone ...but not forgotten

Wiggs.
I fancy getting these for mine too.
Did you need to put a diode into each light feed to stop is backfeeding into the body control ECU?
Not sure what effect it might have by doing so.
I fancy getting these for mine too.
Also what LEDs do you have in the grill?
I just fitted these to mine. Super bright but they lose sync after about 45 seconds so being sent back.

Yes. Obviously it is spliced into the loom, but the question was about squirting 12v into the loom and into the BCU.
I would be tempted to use blocking diodes.

Surely you are only taking 12v from the loom to your lights? where would the 12v to "squirt back in" come from?
