Wiring the pop up FD headlights on a stand-alone toggle?


Pulling some unneeded wiring on the ole rx7 and since I’m going with all new gauges, it seems I don’t need anything from the instrument harness. Everything except the pop up button that is.

If I were to wire the headlight pop ups on it’s own stand-alone harness and used a toggle, how would I go about doing that?

The lights themselves run off the front harness, so that’s not an issue. Just need them to pop up and down.

I’m not too savvy with wiring, so bare with me on the questions.

Thanks.

since they already are on a toggle, you just extend factory wires, and hook them up to a switch of your choice

That's pretty funny.

You know what....I seem to have been looking at the fc wiring diagram which seemed way more complicated...

What are the R/G and R/B wires for? They aren’t on the wiring diagram, but they are notated on the connector diagram.
