Hooking up OEM Rally Light Kit
I was finally able to get a pretty good used R53 OEM Rally Light Harness from a fine member here on NAM. It's cut in a few spots but I think I can make it work.
One thing I can't figure out is where the installation instructions show the two leads that go to the lights each have 2 wires, I seem to have 2 wires in one side and 3 wires in the other side. Not sure where this extra wire should go. I think it's red.
Any help would be appreciated. Hoping to install over Xmas break.

These should be the installation instructions: http://www.motoringfile.com/howto/Dr...Lights_902.pdf
There’s also a factory extension harness so you can mount the switch by handbrake instead of cutting a hole in the knee bolster for $2.50: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...s/61120412968/

I ordered that $2.50 extension wire too.

Yes you can do that. Just seal up the splice and use some heat shrink to seal it.
