R50/53 Rally lights wiring question
Rally lights wiring question
I'm looking at getting a vip rally light bracket kit and a set of 4 inch lights . I'm wondering if it's possible to tie the rally lights into the fog lights so when I hit the switch for the fog lights the rally lights will come on too. Or will this be to much on one circuit ?
If I can't do this , does anyone have experience with wiring these up.

this is a light install on a countryman.....but the install is exactly the same.

be aware, if you wire to the fog lights, your 4 lights on the bumper should also be fog lights, and not driving lights.
i wired mine to my hi-beams. if youve never wired lights before it may be a bit confusing, but its actually a prety simple process.....
the above link should walk you through it pretty well, but if you need help let me know.

I assume you'll be using a relay and wiring the power to the positive terminal under the hood. Besides a ground, the only other wire to hook up is the trigger. That can be to a parking light, low or high beam, or the fog light. Since power is coming from the battery terminal and not the circuit itself, you don't have to worry about overloading it.
how would you kill the BCM?....to tap into the lights, you dont do it through the computer, you wire a relay to the power wire of the light its self.
