Wiring Loom
Is there an off the shelf loom to fit aux lights on the front of my 110.
Would rather fit the real deal rather than lash something up.
Is there a gen kit available or does any after market company make a loom with decent quality parts 110 D250 SE HT

Think Brit parts list a loom with the proper Aux 2 switch ... buts it's a couple of hundred pounds from memory !

Am planning to make my own - will post progress up here ...

Not paying that sort of money, I don't mind spending but that is daft. Going by that price I reckon the gen kit is way more expensive then.

Let us know how you get on with making your loom. Pics would be good and a list of what you've used would be grat Thumbs Up 110 D250 SE HT

I am currently planning to do this too as I've bought a pair of lightforce 170s. After looking at light force's own wiring loom and seeing it used scotch blocks, plus cost 50 quid it put me off. I will post my progress and what I have used, but for your own purposes you will need to consider length and capacity of your wiring in terms what ampage it will safely handle, and also what fittings to use etc. Personally I am using insulated connectors, heat shrink wrap and at least equivalent of 10awg for the main harness, along with 30 amp relay and blade fuse holders. Pics to come!

The genuine Land Rover PIAA wiring is what i use for bottom spots, however this is only a small bullet button that you glue to the dash somewhere. I did away with it and made my own switch to replace the blank.

But to be honest you would be better off making your own. A relay and a switch and knowledge of how to wire it up, shouldn't take you too long. William

That would be great, but the list of favours is mounting up that I already owe you!!!!
I was going to enlist your help with the lightbar for the quad as well.

This link should take you to the install instructions for the LR set-up:
http://topix.landrover.jlrext.com/topix/service/document/70582

STC53208 is I believe the part # for the harness alone...However as stated, it's expensive from a LR dealer

I bought mine from ebay, it's the genuine PIAA kit, and i got a good deal - someone had bought it but never fitted it. They do come up from time-to-time if you keep an eye out Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's)

Keep and eye out for this seller on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/231107936375?ssP...1439.l2649

Just before Christmas I bought this LR original kit which included the Aux2 switch and all the wiring for 130 delivered. Took about 2 hours to fit in the rain. Cheapest way to get the Aux 2 Switch at the moment.

I noticed earlier this week they had an identical kit up for sale, now ended. If you are interested it might be worth dropping them a message to see if they have any other kits or can get hold of them.

These chaps do a wiring loom with the original switch. I had the headlamp relay harness from here and it was very good.

Just make one, most kits are made cheap to make profit on and that's about all.
A lot of the connectors etc are absolute rubbish too. Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧
