Well somehow after a month of trying i have managed to wire up my headlights and indicators/hazards in a week!
Somehow even fluked getting the digidash bit working as well!!!

I must say the wiring has been very frustrating, but perseverance seems to have prevailed!

Just thought you should all know! (i'm very proud of myself!)

A week to wire up headlights? Thats a 2 minute job!!

Look as far as wiring goes i'm a retard!
I understand positive, negative and colours...

So to splice a loom designed for individual rocker switches to a sierra switchgear AND having to learn what a relay is means i'm like proper clever!!!

Anyway you forgot about the month i was trying before so really it's about 5 weeks!

Congrats mate, the wiring in a kitcar can be difficult. Some people on here don't actually understand that others have zero knowledge about building cars when they start a build.

I remember the day when I realised that the chassis acts as the negative! Nobody told me - they just assume I knew!

the chassis acts as a what now!??!??!?!?!
heheh

I became confused when people constantly referred to the negative as 'earth'. Not even sure now why people do that to be honest.

Congratulations! The build is about small (sometimes big) victories.
