In most counties it is illegal to have driving lights on with anything other than main beem.
Why would you want them on with low beam anyway?

You would have to re-wire them so that the relay is triggered on dip and main beam and not just main beam.

Do anyone know if there is a wiring diagram for how the Land Rover kit is connected up?

spotlight fitting

Hi Gareth
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction I started the fitting today of my LR spotlights,not finished yet as I run out of time. If and when I buy another Disco, I dont want to drill the bumper on this one as I would take the spotlights off and then refit or resell.
Do you know if anyone has fitted the spotlights on a bracket system other than drilling the bumper, If not it looks like Im going to have to engineer something, I am also going to upgrade the LR spotlight to HID so I will let everyone know when Ive done this.

Something that I noticed on the OE wiring I got with the spotlights the terminals wont go into the plugs unless you bend a little silver tab flat on the terminal then they pop in no problem and lock into place
cheers
 Mike

That would be a 'template' I assume?

I am sure someone has one left over from fitting.

Looks like it may not need one.

Hi Carved!
Yes, i'm speaking about a template.
I didnt' remembere the correct word.
Now i've installed the spot light..but it has come out another problem: they does not start: the switch on the dash board it works and lights, but this is not for spot light.
Does anyone know if i have to enable spot light from the CPU?

Thanks a lot to all!
Bye

If you've used the LR wiring kit then Yes, you'll need a dealer with IDS or someone with Autologic/Faultmate to enable them Club Small Signature; Ignore the length, enjoy the girth
