Wire from engine bay to cabin

Featured Replies

Hi,

I have an 06 Octavia vRS. I need to run some wires from the engine bay into the cabin off the car.

They are thin wires to run from a switch in the car to strobes mounted on the body behind the grill. I would prefer not have to remove the dash and don't mind where in the cabin they come out. What is my best route ?

Thanks

Russell

Excuse my noseyness but why are you fitting emergency services lights? Whilst I love the idea of flicking on the blues to clear the M1 on a busy Friday afternoon, I reckon plod may not see the funny side!!

According to a post on Honest John (http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/forum/post/index.htm?t=79963)

"Blue light not on an emergency vehicle. £2k fine. Destruction of vehicle. 2nd Offence 5k fine. Destruction of vehicle."

No idea how true this is - but this article was found after a quick search on Google..
