    Default Loom Differences ST162

    I am going to install driving lights in the Celica, and I have noticed that on my spare celi. (88 ST) I have an extra set or wires hanging down from the loom, where driving lights would be mounted. They look factory.

    But on the car that they are going onto (86 SX), no wires.

    I wouldnt have thought that being the same model code, they would have been the same.

    Anyone know if there is a space in the relay box, for driving lights?

    There may be - however it's a better idea to just wire it up yourself, especially if you are installing some high powered ones as the factory wiring would probably be undersized
    ...... butt scratcher?!

    Good point. I was planning on that anyway. But thought i would be nice to have some wires there already.

    Legally, do they have to be wired to a switch, and then through your high beams? I cant remember now.

    because they are fog lights, not driving lights, there is a differance
