Does any body know, if you can use the reversing lights live and negative wires and save connecting to the reversing switch on the gear box. Any help in this problem would be appreciated.
Or if you have fitted a set to you own motor and can help.

The factory fitted ones take their feed from the boot area as well. Mine is behind the carpet to the right of the boot

Keef, I picked up the feed for my estate from the reversing lights. Easier on the saloon but a simple Scotchlock to the powerlead and the other to earth, Job done. If you are at the next Kent meet,whenever that is I hope to be there so you can have a look at mine. I have a four sensor unit, supplied by TG Incar which I think is where Scorpio Man got his. They had them recently for about £30 they are very easy to fit and extremely accurate. If you need any more info PM me. Simmo
