I was thinking the other day adding some lights the knight rider car has on the front, the red lights that go side to side. Has anyone fitted soem of these lights and is it easy to do ?

Cant have them on when on the public road + they look s**te.

Just mount a neon that has the function/effect of side to side movement and wire it in. Two wires 12v+ and an earth. You could take it from the battery and fit a switch. There is a gromit behind the glove box that allows wires to be passed through the bulk head. Search amp fitting or how to wire an amp/sub in. It will be under the how to section

#8: Re: Knight rider like lights Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Sun Dec 25, 2011 3:51 pm ---- It would be better if you fitted it so that it came on when you locked the car

That is actually a very good idea. Although I have to use my key
#10: Re: Knight rider like lights Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Sun Dec 25, 2011 4:11 pm ---- Use a relay so it came on when the door pins went down, and fit an ignition wire on the switch so that it didn't come on if you lock your doors when driving
#11: Re: Knight rider like lights Author: Rob2859, Location: HalifaxPosted: Sun Dec 25, 2011 4:36 pm ---- Nah will be easier just to bang it onto the interior light and get you to fix my remote locking
#12: Re: Knight rider like lights Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Sun Dec 25, 2011 4:42 pm ---- Interior light uses a BSI earth, circuit gets earthed when you unlock/lock, via a capacitor
#13: Re: Knight rider like lights Author: Addaz, Location: SuffolkPosted: Sun Dec 25, 2011 4:43 pm ---- Just NO

I thought the 3rd brake light wasn't a legal requirement, so surely it wouldn't matter?
