    Hello

    I was thinking about putting lights under my seat like a few little ones just to see in there at night lol

    I got a malaguti so the battery is under my seat

    How hard would it be to fit lights and how do i go about connecting them to my battery ect.

    And can i use like fairy lights and instead of battery powerd connecting up to the ped battey

    Cheers

    If you do go ahead with it, remember the petrol tank is under the seat as well....... and you sit on it. :cry:

    As in, it will need to be fused at the correct amperage.

    Thats a fairly straight forward install really. all you need is some decent lights (i would go with LEDs as they are brighter, whiter, cheap, less power hungry and dont get hot) then its just a matter of rigging a plunger switch to the seat so they lights wont stay on when the closed, as seen under the bonnet of a lot of cars. you can buy these switches for a couple of quid.

    depending on what switch you get, its just a matter of running one of the wires right to the battery, and the other through the switch before going back to the battery. Obviouslt though i would reccomend installing an inline fuse aswell, If your using LEDs then you can use a fairly low rated fuse be t on the safe side.
