Let there be light..
I am putting lights on my 100 and had a few hopefully simple questions...
What gauge wire should it be, I thought 14 GA but it looked smaller than what as on it. Also, was the original kit wire yellow? What size fuse is used for the lights? And finally... I have a spring assist on the left side; it appears to be in the way of properly mounting the Grote light, any suggestions or pictures keeping it as "original" as possible? Thanks, |
I'm not sure if the wire was yellow, but I think that's correct. As for 14g, that's fine. Your lamps are 35w each, or 3 amps each at 12v. A total of 6 amps. 14g wire is good for up to 15 amps. Lengths are short enough that voltage drop is not a concern, so you are fine with the 14g wire.
not sure about the grote light mounting... |
Thanks for the reply.
I went with the 14g and "winged it" on mounting the rear light, used a fender mounting bolt on the vertical part to attach the bracket. Looks like it belongs there and as long as it gets a good ground, I should be good to go. I need to pick up a connector on the way home and there will be light! Thanks, |
Good news David! Be sure to take some pics!:beer2:
