Hi m8,

Welcome to Surfdom!

Re your wiring. Best place I've found to connect into is the wiring for the side lights, which can be found behind the panel by the driver's feet - the one that has access to the fuses. This is easiest to get off if you take off the trim along the foot of the driver's door (watch out when you put the trim back the plastic jobbies on the back tend to bend real easy).

If memory serves me right the wires will already be partially exposed and are red and white (best check that though - if you do a search for wiring diagrams you'll get a definitive answer).

Enjoy tinkering.

I believe that to be legal the rear foglight should only be able to be switched on with the dipped headlights, I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.
