[QUOTE="condor22, post: 124212, member: 1932"] The ADR Vehicle Standard (Australian Design Rule 1/00 - Reversing Lamps) 2005 - F2005L03873 Link [url]http://www.comlaw.gov.au/Details/F2005L03873[/url] This ADR applies to lights that ARE connected to the gearbox reversing lights. However if lights are mounted at the rear and either covered or aimed at the body of the vehicle when driving and are only deployed off road and in a camping environment, I would consider that the ADR does not apply. Also even if connected to the gearbox reversing lights, an isolating switch would still need to be installed to allow driver control override. Much like my front spotties are connected to high beam, they still have an on/off. Also, even though there are Commonwealth ADRs, each State has it's own rules re vehicle mods, which should be checked, I would suggest, prior to spending money or putting in any effort to install. Most Auto Electricians will know what is legal and at the end of the day may be the cheaper option. [/QUOTE]
