I am sure i read somewhere you now need a tell tale for sidelights..

is this correct?

if so what colur does it have to be.

Thanks Gavin

a tell tale light or sticker? IIRC you don't need a light but there must be tell tale on or in the vicinty of the switch. Best check the book!

cheers speedy..

sort one problem and find another...

wasnt aware sidelights had to work with ignition off..

one step forward.... and all that.

Can you just wire your speedo backlight into the sidelight circuit?

"Can you just wire your speedo backlight into the sidelight circuit? " - Yes, believe that is an alternative, but not all speedos have a separately fed backlight - many are permanently o with ignition.
