Wheels look awesome Rian, did you pick the other 2 off the chap that I sent to you?:)

If your doing a simple battery kill switch do it off the negative terminal as it is safer and easier as you dnt have to deal with any extra wires/fuses that may be in the postive terminal. A rally spec kill switch will however have to kill the postive terminal and will have to use a FIA 6 pole switch where you can run a circuit such as ignition or alternator control wire through so as the engine will stop when the switch is turned off.

Youve got a 3 pin plug on the alt,have you each wire used? looking at the alternator the top pin will be an "S" terminal,bottom left "IG" terminal and bottom right "L" terminal. S should be constant 12v,IG should be ignition switched 12v and l should go the the bulb in the cluster,where the opposite side of the bulb will have an ignition switched 12v also. S tells the regulator what state of charge the battery is in,IG switches on the regulator and L is just a way of telling you theres a problem with your charging,older alts used the l terminal as a means of exciting the coils to begin charging but new alts do it electronically. Thus you dnt need the light to have the alt charging.

Check what your missing at the headlamp plug with a circuit tester or meter...rule out whether its an earth problem or power probem...go from there..:)
