Does anybody know if it has connections for sidelights?
Want order some new headlights with sidelights, I installed this loom 17 years ago and I can’t remember.

Hiya Terry, all looms should have a connection for sidelights, it’ll be a red wire that terminates near the front right hand wing along with the blue/red and blue/white wires for the dip and main beams.

Excellent!
Should make life easier, didn’t want to go pulling that loom out under the slam panel before ordering. Thanks!

So I dug into this a bit today, and all I can find are these two white/black wires that I can’t identify.

That’s the ignition circuit wiring I think. The white wire is the 12v ignition switch feed to the coil and the right black/white wire goes to the other terminal of the coil. The left black/white connects to the points fly-lead from the distributor.
The bundle of lighting wires you’re looking for are tucked up under the slam panel, usually pretty close to the bonnet release or vertical support.

Thanks! I dug a little further and found a single red wire that comes on with the park lights. It was buried in the bundle of lighting wires.
