lighting question
jim75 - 6/5/08 at 10:32 PM

The version of the sva manual I have talks about the position lights / numberplate light etc all turning on with a single switch.

The way I was going to do the lighting was to have one toggle switch for position lights / dipped beam / numberplate light

one toggle to switch between dipped and main

one for rear fog and one for hazard lights.

Is that going to work or do I need to separate the dipped beam and position lights?

Should be fine.
The usual arrangement on your average tin top is to choose side (sorry position!) or main lights on one stalk and main and dipped beam on another switch or function

I think you will find what they mean is that front and rear should be on the same switch so you can't turn on the front lights without the rear.
The way you are suggesting sounds fine.
