[TR] p700 lights with sidelight

[wbeech]

Interesting thought, any extra light that might help draw attention to our
little cars is a good thing.  I would just run the wire back to the switched
side of the fuse block, when you turn the key they come on.  To have them go
off when the main beams come on would require a relay of some sort, I am
sure wiser minds will weight in.

 

All the best,

Afternoon 

 

So I had to replace the headlights for the TR3a and got a set of these.  As
you can see in the image they have a "sidelight" wired in the bowl.

My question, has anyone installed these and any suggestion on wiring these
sidelights?  I am thinking might be nice ( not very bright I suspect ) like
daytime running lights that will be on when the head lights are off and then
switch off when they turned on.
