Title: Tow Bar Lights
Post by: James Buchan on August 10, 2004, 03:58:33 PM

Just an idea for anyone thinking about it:

I was going to run magnetic lights to the top of my bug for when I tow it behind my truck (with towbar obviously)

Thanks to Chris' idea I wired into my fuse box/relay and Viola - working tail-lights via my bug ones. Nice and easy install to say the least!

Total parts cost 5.99+ tax at Princess Auto for the harness.

I would suggest you run a master battery switch and/or disconnect your battery while in tow of course, to prevent shorts, and what not!
