BOOT AND BONNET SWITCHES

If your vehicle is not fitted with Boot/Bonnet switches which

operate the interior light , these switches are available from

Sparkrite as an accessory.

The Switch Kit (Part No.

SR910) should be installed and connected as shown in Fig.

6. Ensure the fixing screw for the switch makes a good

earth contact, crimp a piece of wire to the switch terminal

and then connect into the existing interior light circuit.
