So far, I've got no complaints about the lighting from my big plastic lenses. However with the end o' daylight savings coming... next month now, I guess... I'm gonna be doing some late night highway driving.

I have fitted the purple dragon (below) with an old set of 12 volt "Auteroche" driving lights that came with my round-fender 122S. I upped the 122 to a pair of round spotlights and have had these amber lights sitting on a shelf for a couple years. They put out some very nice road lighting and so I went ahead and mounted them to my 245.


I've moved these up and forward a bit by drilling a hole in the very thick aluminum bumper.


I'd like to wire these up to the rear fog lights especially since I don't have a two-stage panel switch like the 740/940 had.

Has this been done (I assume so) How have others wired this up. I figure relayed power is good. I have some relay receivers and wiring from a NOS volvo foglight kit from a 940. I'm not sure where to find the wires for rear fogs up under the dash. It also occurs to me that the 240 *might* already have some wiring in place for this sort of upgrade.

A forum search did not turn up much aside from calling Daniel Stern and buying some e-codes.
