Hi Andy. If your "grill kit" is like mine, you'll be pretty much on your own, as far as wiring the lights up is concerned. I ordered the "switch kit" also, which turned out to be just a switch, nothing else. You can wire things up as you please, but be advised: your headlight switch and wiring will not support the added load of the new lights. You'll have to control them with a relay, and I recommend using the high beam circuit to trigger the relay, as these lights were intended to be used as high beams. Since you're close by, you're welcome to stop on by, and I'll show you how I did it, and give you a hand with yours if needed.

Hi Mike, I just read your note on inner lights .I just ordered the full grill for my 85'. Was the install pretty basic or did you have some snags? By the way, I live in Eagle River Ak. I just completed an engine swap to a Jetta 1.8 ( very happy with it) Any way, maybe we can compare notes in the future. Thanks, John
