And for those who don't read wiring diagrams so well, try this:

On the rear of the driver's side headlight locate the red wire with silver bands around it,

if you have a 12V electrical tester check that this wire is positive when the headlights are on and it then peculiarly goes

to negative when highbeam is on.

Clip a Scotchblock onto this wire with a piece of wire in it long enough to reach back to where you are going to

locate the relay, and attach this wire to terminal number 85.

This will be the "trigger" for the relay, the relay will always have a positive feed to the normal trigger,

and live going to the "switch" of the relay for the auxiliary spots,

so the relay will click closed only when the earth terminal gets a negative feed

(as it will normally be positive...).


Take a wire off the battery's live terminal and with an inline fuse holder connect it to terminals 86 and 87,

these are the normal trigger and the input terminal of the relays switch.

Connect a wire from terminal 30 - the switched output of the relay - and connect this to the positive wire of your spotlights

, the spotlights should also be earthed to either the vehicles body or chassis, or an existing earth point

(probably the best idea I've found).

Hmm, and that's it... when you put your headlights on the wire coming from the Scothchblock attached to the red wire

with silver bands will be positive, so the relay will not click closed.

However when you "flash" your headlights or switch to mainbeam,

that red wire with the silver bands will drop from positive to negative, then, as the relay now has an earth it

will click closed and switch the positive feed to the spotlights on...

and your spots will come on so you can flash other roadusers, or when you're offroad in the dark, etc...

Ok?
