I would never previously have felt the need for a reversing-light and always thought of it as something to alert other drivers to what I was doing rather than to help visibility. But a few weeks ago, having made a wrong slot (as us rally-drivers say
) on a totally unlit road in the middle of nowhere, I realise that there are some occasions when it is desperately needed.
I've decided on the light to fit; it's the one off the 126 BIS, which is an add-on unit, not built into the bodywork. But I'm not sure where to fit it to be most effective and make least modification to the bodywork or bumper.
I might even add a matching fog-light if it looks reasonably acceptable. I'm planning to wire it via a relay, with electrical feed probably from the point where the alternator output connects at the old dynamo regulator.
Has anyone else fitted one and can spare a photo?
