Installing (and modifying) a Boomslang Headlight Wiring Loom to My Land Rover Defender TD5.

Thank you for posting the video. The modifications you have done to the loom are well worth it. I wouldn't have given the single fuse blowing and losing all lights a thought. I've purchased a boomslang loom but failed to say in the instuctions about getting the plugs through the headlight bowels, as mine is an early 90, so will probably have to purchase later bezels.

I have never liked the Boomslang looms, they take teh loss capability from one lamp with an issue to two or seems one, depending on age/spec of the loom purchased. I fitted relays to my 300tdi in the fusebox area and basically rewired the cables to the fuses to drive the relays and then the light master fuse to power the relay switch contacts and out to the fuses. The current is higher to the lamps and there is minimal moding to the loom, no external additional loom and all lamp wires are individually fused as per the original spec. If you didn't know, you'd think it was factory. I even have the dim dip working as it is designed to.
