I could do you a few piccies of the set-up on a '77 UK 1500, but I'm not
certain whether this would be terribly relevant to your situation. Let
me know if you think they might be of use.

The Map Light has a short length of black wire coming out of the end of
it, terminating in a stubby male connector. This connects to the
female connector of a plain red wire that should be hanging out of your
dash harness. There may also be a length of black (earth/ground) wire
with a large ring terminal on the end of it hanging around there. The
consensus appears to be that this goes under the retaining nut for the
Map Light.

Well, that is nearly twice what I paid for a brand new one earlier this
year, so I'm guessing that he's a little pricey! I bought my Vynide
hood from the TSSC for #95 (USD134.90).
