Re: [mk2] light relaying

[16v Jason <jason@scirocco.org>]

Check out Tech Procedures on scirocco.org.  It's for Euro lights, but the 
wiring is the same.  If you're running stock US lights, you won't need to 
get the heavy guage wire that I used, nor will you need 40A relays.  Go get 
a couple of 20A relays (which will hold 20A x 12V = 240Watts) a piece, and 
some 14 guage wire.

The relays should cost you a few bucks a piece ($5?)... and that's really 
about it.  And depending on how meticulous you are about the install, it'll 
take you between 1/2 hour and 5 hours.
