The extra sidelight feed needed in the indicator position to power the white light in switchback LED I took from the redundant wingtop light feed. If you don't have the latter on your car the redundant female bullet connector secured against inner wing will be there each side, as shown connecting to short red wire below, otherwise you will have to splice into it. The only fiddly bit is changing the OE two pin econoseal connector which feeds indicators to a three pin one as shown.



The only difference between our cars is that 3.7 Roadsters are factory wired for all sidelights to be permanently on with ignition. In your case they would need to be selected on light switch. No reason they couldn't be wired permanently on as well though. Being LED's the extra power consumption is minimal.

I agree with Gambalunga, driving with your headlights on during the day is definitely the way to go, and we've all got headlights so there's nothing to add.



Monty is a small low green car so especially when winding down country roads he tends to disappear against a backdrop of hedges and fields.



But even in urban environments and on the motorway I've found he's not always seen by other road users, I'm running LED H4s in warm white but under yellow glass globes as used by owners of classic Citroën models such as the DS, you can still buy these globes from classic Citroën parts specialists in mainland Europe.



This not only gives a very period look when the car is parked with the headlights off.



But being yellow rather than the normal white headlights we're all used to, other road users also seem to notice Monty better.
