Adding Fuses to Headlight Bucket

Post by hudson »

Hey everyone - I want to add fuses to the wiring in my 1971 R75/5. I am not an electronic guru, so is there a write up you can point me to or schematic as to what wires need to be fused? Any tips/suggestions? Thanks...

Might be worthwhile to run proper earth wires from the front indicators to one of the earths in the headlamp.

I think the photo is of one of the gates in the town walls of Bundi a small town in the far south of Rajastan in India. It's still unspoilt and back then had a slight feeling of menace, I'm fairly sure that it was used by the author M M Kaye in her novel the Far Pavilions for the town where all the bad guys lived.
