Driving lights -operation?
Curt,
Thanks for the compliment, you are a kind person,

It is easy , but finding the driving light wire is detective work.
I found it near the headlight relays, ( original on the 88FC ).
The relays were beyond your left foot , only accessible from the front
headlight area. Cut the wire, add a fuse and connect to 12 volts.
The driving lights will operate off of their existing On/Off switch.
