GT tailgate lamp
Posted: Tue Mar 17, 2020 2:31 pm
Hello, my car is a 67 so did not have this lamp from new. I have purchased the complete lamp, and would like some advice on how to wire it in please.
I presume the later offside 'C' pillar wires, which on later models powered it, aren't there, so I shall be using new wire and finding an existing power feed. Looking at the switch, does it just require power to the r/h side, as viewed from the rear, with the earth being completed by the screw to the body through the copper connecting plate on the far l/h side of the bulb holder, or is an earth wire required to the other direct side of the bulb holder as well ? The unit came from Moss, but I presume they're all the same.
Many thanks.
