Light bar wiring

[cheese]

Hi all

I'm sure this has been covered before, but.....

I am going to fit a light bar over the weekend. And I am curious to see what way people have routed the wires into the car, and where relays etc have been fitted. Can anyone point me in the right direction?? I have a 93 SSR-G with sunroof if that makes a difference

Cheers

Cool thanks, that takes of how to wire them up, but what is the best route for the cables?? I don't really want to drill holes if I don't have to

you should be able to put the cables under the door seals and run them down that

Hmmm... bit ropey though if its a permanent fit Rich. Better done properly by drilling a hole and using either a waterproof gland or a waterproof connector. I was a bit scared back when I did it, but its never leaked, and now I drill holes in bodywork with abandon!

I wrote this 'how to' some time ago.

thank you,

that is an awesome write up, Iam printing now to have a really good read.

I am still about drilling into the roof, but I have only just got the car. Maybe that over protectiveness might wear away.

you wait till you come off roading and laning with some of us then you'll lose that protectiveness and shineyness or just break down and cry....
