I currently have a toggle switch (in radius exception area) for the lights but i dont have any indication for the side lights. Do you think it would be ok to use one of the toggle switches with an led on it for the indication? I dont really fancy cutting into my dash now that it is all mounted and finished. Would be much easier to just change the switch.
What do you mean with side lights ?
Is this the same as "parking lights" ?
Because parking lights are optional and tell-tale for them are also optional.
Do your instruments have a backlight that switches on/off? IIRC backlights are enough for the sidelight telltale requirement.

The backlight comes on with the ignition.
Breaker - I think they are the same as parking lights but im sure the manual says they are compulsory and you need an indication.

Strange, my IVA manual says (chapter 30):
"Optional on Motor Vehicles not exceeding 6m in length and 2m in width
Prohibited on other vehicles"
and
"A closed circuit tell-tail for the parking lamps is optional. However, if a tell tail is fitted it must not be possible to confuse it with the tell-tale for the front and rear position lamps"
