Hi all,

quicj question, now i feel the end is in sight and may well be done in aq couple of weeks, I'm finishing off the dash.

I have three savage switches

Fog, Horn and Fan, Can anyone tell me if they need to be wired up on relays or is the switch man enough to stand the current?

many thanks in adavance

What are the current ratings of the switches?

fog and horn should be fine but would run the fan through a relay and use the switch as an overide for the relay.
i believe there rated at 10 or 15amps but not100% certain

I would run all three through relays.

They are rated at 6A iirc so the fog is ok (approx 2A for a 21W bulb) but the fan will definitely need a relay. The horn depends on the current consumption but to be on the safe side I would use a relay too.
