13mm hole in a position convenient to the driver, or under
the dashboard using the mounting panel and screws
provided. Make sure there is no interference with other
components of the vehicle.
Wiring
Disconnect the battery earth cable before any wrong is
attempted.

the connectors supplied, as follows:
Step 1:
Cut the active cable between the ignition switch and the
flasher unit.

are incorporated in the rear flasher lamps, but a twin
filament globe is used, e.g. Hillman Hunter and Austin X6,
Terminal 54F and the extra cable on 49S are not required;
proceed only as far as step 3 (move to step 5).
Where reversing lamps are incorporated in amber section of
rear flasher lamps, using single filament globe, follow step 4.
Step 4:
Cut active cable to reverse switch and insulate.
•
Connect orange cable (supplied in kit) between reverse
switch and 49S as shown in diagram.

To use the cable connectors, the cable that is to be tapped
is laid in the groove nearest the hinge, the tapping cable is
placed in the other groove with its end against the stop.
Close the hinge, using pliers clamp the metal connector until
it is flush with the insulation. Clip the flap over the metal
connector and it will lock into position giving a fully insulated
connection.
