Thread: Query for the electricery experts

I already have the Fyrlyts. Got them new for $190 for the pair. (Silent auction, school fete. I don't think anyone else realised their true cost!). At $1300 I'll probably think more about fitting Opposite Lock 'bar and use that for so much more.

Just another thought. The Fyrlyts are 150w each globe which is a minimum of 13 Amps per light, optimally 30 Amps wiring capacity for the pair. The LR loom may not have enough 'head room' to allow the lights to work at their best ( I stand to be corrected if this ain't so!)

BTW, had the D4 in to get the trailer plug checked by the dealer as the fridge was not running on 12v when hooked up to the car. They wanted to undo the EBC wiring which was installed following your instructions. Told them in no uncertain terms not to touch it. Thank god they listened.

Flamin heck that looks gooood!

I had a set of Fyrlyts installed last week onto an ECB bar. It cost me $200. The normal cost is $160 but I requested that they use had 6mm wiring instead of the usual 4mm and a 40 amp relay. This was suggested by Paul who co-developed the lights. There is a circuit diagram on the Fyrlyt web site. The install cost included a stick on switch which sits to the left of the rotary light switch. It is a push on/push of switch with red and green leds to indicate on or off. Hooked into the high beam circuit of course. The cable runs into the steering column gap. Looks very neat and the led is not noticeable at night as it's obscured by the steering wheel.

I got my Fyrlyts through a forum member.

Letherm, do the 'High Beam Assist' ( or, more accurately, possum lights)
still come one or have they been disconnected because that's quite a lot of Amperes draw on the system if both are on together?
I would like to have a two-way switch so an either/or choice is available.
