Have recently purchased a 2008 78 series Cruiser wagon. Can't get the smile off my face!

It is a base model Workmate hence no "headlights on" warning if I neglect to turn the lights off. I have a very easy to install circuit based in a standard Bosch relay plus Jaycar buzzer but before I do this is there an easier way to use a headlight warning relay perhaps from a GXL 70 series or maybe a 100 or 200 series?

Second part of the question is does the 70 series have headlight switches in the negative (ground)circuit like some other Toyotas or is the switch in the +ve circuit like most other cars?

Thanks in advance,

Graham

You could get one of the supercheap ones as well, just 2 wires, installed one in my old man's Triton due to him constantly leaving the lights on. Really loud.
