Default Driving Light Harness - What recommendations

Blokes,
I just bought some driving lights (IPF) and now I'm looking for a harness.

I found these;http://www.narva.com.au/products/bro...-light-harness

Any other suggestions?

Make it yourself out of 6mm wire it will be better than any of the premade kits

I found the IPF kit to work fine in the JK with no strange effects on the factory high beams or relay buzzing etc

Thanks Yom, TBH I have no idea what I'm buying.

For instance I have no idea what the difference is between these two kits and which one would suit my needs;

http://www.ozautoelectrics.com/autom...pre-wired.html

http://www.ozautoelectrics.com/autom...iring-kit.html

One is more than double the cost of the other.

Also that Narva kit cost a bomb, I'm wondering if it's overkill.

I found this kit by Hella http://www.roadrunneroffroad.com.au/...ness-100w.html

But it's $65 vs Narva $145, what is missing?

the narva has a switch box that enables the harness to be used for both positively and negatively switched high beam circuits, hence the added cost but reality is that it is a cheap bit of hardware and the high cost is essentially a convenience charge. though it does have higher quality ribbed insulation tubing compared to the Hella kit.

As i said, I've used the IPF wiring harness and it worked and was easy to install. i'd suggest you do the same if you're not overly electrically minded.

Thanks Yom, found the IPF kit on ebay for a good price.
