[Mgs] Driving lamps on a 70 MGB (Dave Willner)

[Paul Hunt]

Whilst it is normal (but not essential) to only enable driving/spot lights 
when main beam is selected, fog lights need to be enabled when only parking 
lights are on.  If you can't have fog lights on unless either dipped or main 
beam are on the glare thrown back by the headlights makes the fog lights 
useless.

FWIW you can find schematics for the MGB here 
http://www.mgb-stuff.org.uk/wn_electricsframe.htm
 and click on 'Lighting' and 'Fog and Spot Lights'.  Relays and fuses are 
also essential if you have uprated headlights, see 'Uprated Headlamps' in 
the same section.
