Adding Spotlights to MGTF - wiring help needed pretty please!

Hi and sorry I have taken a few days to reply - sadly I have been laid up in bed and so not managed to achieve anything at all! My plan is to crack on with it all towards the end of this week! Re: your question - I am not too sure about TF and F switches.. all of mine are the same and the one that came with the pack seems to be the same too....

Hi yes I totally agree - hence why I still genuinely have no real clue what wires to attach where. I think I will add the coloured wires to the back of the switch connector in order shown in the picture/diagram I attached before, but I then don't know on which cables to then piggy back/connect them to?

I went back to the seller who was able to send me the following to 'help' me? Can anyone make sense of it with regard to what I currently have in the car? Thanks ever so much as always!!

Early Fs had different shaped switches to later Fs and TFs.

Ah ok, but I presume the wiring in the back was always the same?
Anyhoo I am not sure my last post had the pic attached - so here are the so called 'instructions' that the seller has sent to me...



 

Early F switch panel

 


Later F & TF switch panel

 

And even though the window lift switches look the same they're actually different

More importantly......Totally different switches too!

You won’t see many of those early panels in the land of Pom, the exported cars were nearly all equipped with air con, which was an optional extra here. As air con was a bit of a con, on less salubrious vehicles of that time & a costly extra (if my memory serves & stop giggling at the back!)
They’re a bit scarce. I think they look neat & if one popped past at an attractive price, I might just have it about, for when I rework the centre console.

No those of you that were to miserable to buy the fully loaded versions and settled for the poverty pack got this

 

Where are you up to with this? Cobber & I can go on swooping anecdotes for ages, with you in the background wondering how to progress.

No I haven't made any progress yet.

Hi Airportable and thank you so much for yours and Cobbers help thus far.. I was busy over the Xmas and New Year period and so have not touched this since due to bad weather..
The weather is picking up now and so I am looking at getting back out on the car as it's a big project... I am still non the wiser of what wires I should be piggy backing into...it's so frustrating and the car has just been say with the console hanging out
I am ultimately unsure what coloured wires on the main loom in the car are that I should be connecting to with the ones remaining from the kit that I purchased.

I shall take a couple of new pictures to hopefully show you all a little easier with what is left.... I had hoped the so called 'instructions' I posted up that came with the kit, together with the additional wiring diagrams for teh back of the green plug that goes into the back of the fog light switch, may have helped with the situation, but in all honesty they clearly havent!

SO frustrated by it all and sorry if I have caused you all stress with asking so many questions

I will be able to post pictures up tomorrow - thanks ever so much once again...
