Hey boys,
Can anyone be of any assistance to me by supplying a wiring diagram for spotties for an 05 prado?? Cheers guys

Cmon guys.. someone must have an idea?? Chers

Aftermarket spotties? Or stock ones

If aftermarket, just wing it

yeh m8 aftermarket.. were thinkin of following the diag on the spotties box they come in.. we did it that way for my lux, dad wants to no before he starts on his pride n joy.. he he

I dare say there wont be any set wiring diagrams for after market spotties. Best bet would be take it to a sparky, and pony up dough, cant be more than $100 or so at a guess . OR just wing it. Its not that hard, unless you want them to be wired up to the standard lights so they only turn on when the switch is on, AND high beam is selected.

If you want to just have an on/off switch and forget about wiring it to high beams all you need is fuse and relay, or even just a fuse I think Red wire from + on battery, to fuse, from the fuse to a switch, from the switch to lights. Then just ground from the lights to somewhere on the chassis Look for a discrete hole in the firewall to run wires through - Should be some already there for stock wires, try and avoid making new ones.


DISCLAIMER - I know some smart arse wizz bang sparky dude will post up in the near future picking holes in my above plans, but this fella posted over a week ago and no one else has helped so BITE ME

Do you have a loom that came with the lights?

you should be able to just follow the instructions supplied.

I think no-one has replied as this topic has been discussed many times.
try searching for it. failing that just plead a bit more and someone should help.

I think we need more info though.... are you making your own loom or do you have one? If all you need to know is which wires to hook into on the car just set on it with a test light, if you're not happy doing this you shouldnt really be fitting them yourself. It's not worth burning your car to the ground for the sake of $100 or so.

Go to your local library,they should have a workshop manual . Wiring diagramm in back for standard lights. Check colour coding of wires and away you go,BUT if you are not electrically minded,I would pony up the cash as the guys above have stated,Cheers Paul.

I work at a toyota dealership and spotties are a option, u can chose ipf narva hella, u pick we fit. we just wire them like a normal set of spotties, pickup off hibeam wire to a switch in cab, from switch to relay, bat power to relay to the lights and run the earth back to the batt or eng. follow the destructions with the lights and u cant go wrong

Well cheers for all that, he has a starting platform now, um i searched but couldnt get a straight answer.. for the new prado anyways, i think its cuz no one wants to do anything to them till warranties up or sumfin.. i have a hilux so mine were piece of piss! K thanks to all that posted! Take care
