If you're running, say, 275/40 on the 20s and your 18" spare has a 235/60 tyre, then the rolling cir ... |

Ok, it all works. I can confirm that the extra plug IS required and it was the switchpack wiring harness that was incorrect.
Anyone wanting to do this mod here is what you will need:

Looking at the design of those LEDs, I'm really surprised that they have given a passable beam pattern in the later projector style headlights. I tried numerous options of that style and all left noti ... |
