    Rough Costs of wiring Spot Lights and Light Bar on a Amarok

    Gday All,

    Ive got a used Amarok with ARB bullbar and ARB spotlights. I was recently given a light bar and i have since mounted it.
    The car is used and the existing spot lights do not seem to work even though they appear to be wired through to cabin.

    I did some amarok forum searching and found that they make Individual Spot Light and Light Bar switches to go in the blank spots next to the gear shifter. I have already bought the switches are would like them installed for each corresponding light.

    Would any wise VW fans know a estimated cost to pay a auto electrian to wire these in ?


    P.S The Spot Lights and LED are already Mounted.

    How long is a piece of string ?
    Believeme its not that hard to wire up spots or a light bar
    Id imagine the kit came with a wiring kit and directions
    You only have to use the high beam as a trigger for the relay

    First thing to do - identify the reason the existing driving lights don't work. Could be a fuse, could be something else. But before you start installing new wiring, identify the existing issue.
    Cheers
