    Hi guys,
    I have just purchased a pair of 30W auxiliary lights for my TE630. Does anyone have a good idea as to where to mount them? Aux light.jpg

    I had mine at the lower triple clamps but moved them to the Barkbusters because of the Safari tank.

    Thanks guys,

    I will have to mount the lights onto the Barkbusters as I also have a Safari tank. Do you connect the lights along with the high beam wiring, if so where would be the best place to connect? This would save additional wiring , relay, and on/off switch.

    DYNONBOB, compliment to your clean looking bike! Do you have any problem with light reflecting off your screen? I will have the same problem with my Slipstream screen.

    My headlight lense is looking rather sad too. I am not sure if it is caused by the 55Watts HID light that I installed.

    I took the windshield off for now because the brackets also hit the tank. I had a little reflection from the headlight but rarely ride this bike after dark.

    Do you connect the aux lights with the high beam or separate wiring direct from battery?

    I pulled power for mine off of the battery with an in-line fuse block and a relay pulling the signal from the high beam relay, so they're on their own fuse, but they come on with the high beam.

    Just got back from a big ride that i clocked a lot of night hours.Have them mounted on the barkbusters. Worked excellently.I have power to a small fuse block mounted up front.This is hooked to a relay wired off the high beam feed at the headlight also have a switch to turn them off.

    WickedWill, nice fuse block. Where did you get it from? Is there an easy way to tap into the high beam relay? I think it is the Green/Black wire is the high beam relay wire?

    I am heading off for a big ride next month. Melbourne to Mt Dare, ride across the Simpson Desert to Birdsville, then onto Cape York, down through the coast to Brisbane & Fraser Island before heading straight home.

    That is an impressive ride.
    I thought that my planned Mornington Peninsular to Cape York (in a direct route as possible) sounded ambitious.

    The fuse block came from supercheap i think.

    I tapped into the wire at the headlight socket for high beam.The relay i used is just for the aux lights,it came with the lights.Battery goes to fuse block,fuse block power to the relay , high beam wire triggers the relay.I have a switch inline from the relay to the lights so i can just run high beam if necessary.

    Your trip sounds awesome.I can't wait to get back out to the simpson on the 630.

    Thanks. I will head out to Supercheap Auto tomorrow and pick one up. Nice wiring job too.

    This will tidy up my wiring. I will hook up the heated grip, GPS and cigarette lighter socket to the fuse block.
