Thanks everyone, appreciate the help. I made up some brackets from angle iron, took those old J.W.Hobbs lights on the shelf ( left over from our Ford dealership in the mid 70's ) mounted them, and wired them. Also elimintated several bare and questionable connections under the dash. It's amazing what people will do with electrical wiring, found a hot wire with a bare end, from the voltmeter just hanging! Have to find out how that is supposed to be wired next. Nothing works on the dash right now, oil line to gauge, cut & sealed, temp gauge not hooked up, proof meter not working, all the little fun stuff to figure out. Only 35 watts each light, but I tested them out tonight, plenty bright, was scraping wet snow off the driveway. Much better than working in darkness! Hal, I put a 30 amp in-line fuse after the toggle switch, I agree, no shortcuts when it comes to safety, every circuit has to be fused, I see the previous owner was not too interested in safety, this one runs on LPG !!!
