Dear experts,
Due to my posting to a rural town in the near future, I want to fit a pair of driving lights to my 6R polo GTI. I've done some reading and decided to go for a two-light combination, one spread, one pencil beam, probably in the lightforce/ hella range.
Anyhow, the installation guides tell me that there needs to be a connection to the battery, which we all know is in the boot for the new Polo. I am wondering if anyone has any idea how this can be done without tmodifying the car too much (the post is only for 16 weeks, so a reversible solution would be fantastic). Also in terms of mounting the light at the front of the car, I found this:
Eagle Products Unibar Lighting Bracket (http://www.eagleproducts.com.au/products_unibar.php)
In terms of switch placement for the lights, is there a way I can wire them with the highbeams/ foglights in such a way that they can be switched on using the existing switches? (Ie steering wheel stalk/ switch on the right)
Any input/ comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and attention.
Much love,
JA
