Tried the search.

I remember someone posting up about having a DIY switch that turns the headlights on/off should you wish too.

I would like to know which wire i need to splice, just being lazy really. and any pics of your mod would be nice to see too.

Thanks

The ground wire for the headlamp assembly would be a good place to splice.

Under the instrument cluster, in that mess of wires that feeds the front end, look for the connector piece that has 5 wires coming out of it. That should be the headlamp assembly subharness.

The wires will be colored grey/black, white, blue, red/black, and solid black.

On that connector pin set, #3 - the blue wire, powers the low beams. The low beams and marker lamps share a common black ground that runs to position 5 on the connector.
