I'm just about finished up with my wiring and nearly forgot about side lights for the meatballs. How did you guys wire these side lights up? Do they come on with the headlights, or on a separate switch?

My 289 kit did not include the meatball lights - did you buy them separately? If I had them, I'd wire them to the marker light circuit.

Many details on my Coupe-R are different from a typical Coupe build because mine is not street legal, race only.

I wired mine into the headlight switch. Routing through the door wasn't too bad. I used black sheathing for the wires and a rubber grommet on the door to clean up the installation.

I spliced it into the wiring harness. Did a lot of surgery on that, also spliced in a floor mount high beam switch.
