MG TD TF 1500 - Wiring the Lucas Driving Lamps

I recently bought in a local estate sale a pair of brand new, still in the box, Lucas LR 576 driving lamps for the sum of $20.00. They were wrapped in newspaper from 1964.

Question........how do I wire these lamps into my TF ?

Should be a lead in your harness on the right hand side (Red with yellow if I remember correctly). Make up a pig tail to go to the lamp and another from one lamp to the other. Also need to run the ground back the same way to the same ground lead for the head lamps...may need to get a 4 (or 3)plug bullet adapter if yours only has a two. Run the lights off the "A" switch on the dash.

Nice find!
Just in case your not clear from LD's post ...the red/yellow wire should allready be connected to the "A"(aux) switch on dash.
