 Fog lights Ok I've bought some front fog lights. What's the best way to wire them up on a 2cv, and what do I need to buy that isn't the obvious? I know it ain't strictly 2cv related, but I haven't got a clue about electrics so any advice would be good.
Cheers,
James

Re: Fog lights Ok cheers. So in other words I couldn't just put in a direct battery feed, inline fuse as close as possible, switch in cab, wiring to lights and earth it then?

Re: Fog lights Ok I know the basics but the words like relay fills me with dread. I just try and keep things simple, even though if I wasn't lazy and knew a little bit more fitting the relay would probably be easier

If I do I'm blaming you Yeah anyway you're right. *stops being a massive twat, takes deep breath, mans up, gets out crimpers* I'll do it at the weekend, sans relay.
