Hi. Been browsing for a few weeks and finally became a paid member. Ive been after a Pickup as a utility vehicle for a while but they are going for too much money so I bought a Terrano SWB instead.

Heres a pic from when I bought it

Nice looking truck!

Can I ask what type of roof bar you used for the roof lights and how you did the wiring?
I'm thinking of the doing the same myself.

welcome, good choice, I have had several crew cab trucks and always end up coming back to a T2, they are brilliant :thumb2

Same here, I fancied a warrior, but having already had a maverick, and knowing what they are like I ended up with a 97 terrano, and after trying a friends warrior, I can honestly say my truck is loads more fun:sly

I also want to know, what roof bar have you used for the lights :thumb2

Thanks all again for the warm welcome! The roof bar was from a 04 fiesta, it hooks onto the little trim gutter inside the door.
I wired the roof light through a 4 pin relay taking a feed from the fog light switch to a switch on the dash then onto the relay. I ran the wires up inside the windowscreen trim (it pulls off). The other lights again are relayed from high beam. You can use most 4 pin relays from a cars fusebox.
