  • Rough Costs of wiring Spot Lights and Light Bar on a Amarok

    Gday All,

    Ive got a used Amarok with ARB bullbar and ARB spotlights. I was recently given a light bar and i have since mounted it.
    The car is used and the existing spot lights do not seem to work even though they appear to be wired through to cabin.

    I did some amarok forum searching and found that they make Individual Spot Light and Light Bar switches to go in the blank spots next to the gear shifter. I have already bought the switches are would like them installed for each corresponding light.

    Would any wise VW fans know a estimated cost to pay a auto electrian to wire these in ?


    P.S The Spot Lights and LED are already Mounted.

    How long is a piece of string ?
    Believeme its not that hard to wire up spots or a light bar
    Id imagine the kit came with a wiring kit and directions
    You only have to use the high beam as a trigger for the relay

      First thing to do - identify the reason the existing driving lights don't work. Could be a fuse, could be something else. But before you start installing new wiring, identify the existing issue.

          There could be an inline fuse or the relay is shot see if the connection to the battery is connected going to the relay ?

              They seams to know what they talking about.
              What about a mob near Brisbane. Any recommendations?
