On the donor Liana? No, I just removed the rear lights and took as much wire out as I could (about 12").

On the Jimny - No, KAP had already done that for me!

Only problem I had was water ingress
Settling on the wiring and running under the tape
through the grommet and into rear cabin
But sorted that issue now ;)

I would advise you to leave plastic panels out and keep an eye on it

Good call, I'll make a low point in the wiring loom before it goes through the grommet, that should stop any water

Last night and today I have been modifying the rear loom to make it work on the rear upper lights, it was a lot of work, but worth it and it tidies up the back end some what. I now LED number plate, reverse and fog lights as well

In case you are looking to do the same, this saved a lot of time, stolen from another thread on here, not sure who wrote it – sorry

sidelights: red/yellow
indicators: green/red & green/yellow
brake lights: green/white
reverse light: plain red
rear fog light: pale green/black
earth: black


Before



Everything turned on



Towing socket safely in the rear (I also added an audible alert)



Rear Fog / Reverse
