Evening all I want to add some driving lamps to my mk7 ford transit I've got the lights and a packaged wiring kit with everythi g you need bar a few spade connections. Only tho g us you need to install a fuse connected to the battery. The battery in a transit is under the seat and there are only charging points in the engine bay. Question is can I come of this or would it best either taken to the battery a right ball ache or installing a new fuse in the fuse box
What year is it? I'd be very surprised if there wasn't already a space for a driving lamp fuse in the fuse box - do you have a manual for it? And where would the car's normal driving lamp switches be - are these blocked off? You might even find that all the wiring is in place - for the switches and even terminals coming off the harness for the lamps themselves. Possibly.
It's 2008. I doubt there would be as it's an aftermarket part but it is worth a look or a call. When I've normally fitted them you simply bolt a cable to the battery with a new fuse and relay
Just changing your headlamp bulbs can improve things. Various H4/H7 lamps with different gasses,like 'Philips Xtreme Vision' giving you increase beam range & white lighter & still be road legal.
Spen, do you currently have front fog lamps fitted? If not, you could use this fuse - No 80 https://fordtransit.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=49206 , and I bet there are wires to both the switch position on the dash (is this covered by a blanking cap?) and the lamp location near the bumper - how cool would that be? Failing that, I guess do it the old-fashioned way - cable to battery, earthed relay and loose wires...
