Default Snippet is latest...

TT,

the snippet is from the latest IVA manual, which I downloaded today.

See my post:http://www.haynes.co.uk/forums/showp...8&postcount=10

The version/date on the snippet is not the current manual's version and date, since the section the snippet has been taken from has not been updated since its rev. 3 29/6/2009.

Since it maybe a couple of years until I submit my build for IVA, I intend to fit them, (I have a pair in the garage and have included the necessary wiring on my wiring diagram) as I suspect they will become mandetory in the near future.

OT: Did you see my questions for you in this post?http://www.haynes.co.uk/forums/showp...0&postcount=15

i believe as of next year they will need to be fitted to all kits. its no big deal at the end of the day. all it requires is an extra 12volt feed to the front
