Edit: You can see my resistor install here above the fuse box.

thanks. looks a good place to put it.
i will have to connect the run wire to the lights as the earth is all one on the original light connector. Or is there another way?

d**khead, i figured out what size resistor which is what i asked. told you you couldn't read.

Soo....you still need help then??

I'm confused, you figured it out or you can't figure it out?

You figured out a part of it?

Just ask Andrew to come over and do it for you already, don't be shy. We're all friends helping friends no?

grow up you little child. not reading properly again. i only said i figured out what resistor i needed. i didnt say anything about figuring out how to wire it in. obviously didnt read. go back and try again. so you carry on making yourself look a prat.

All good Happy. Just staying entertained... :thumbup:

The resistor goes between the run wire which you don’t have connected and the earth / ground. you’ll probably have to add a piece of wire because you do want to attach the resistor to the metal bodywork.
