    Hi.

    I am trying to wire an alarm on my 205 gti however I can't figure out which
    connector in the fuse box is for the interior light. I need to know this to
    fit the alarm. Can anyone give me a clue? I have tried figuring it out with
    the Haynes manual but I am useless with wiring diagrams. Just to let you
    know I have the later version of fuse box. Cheers in advance.

    open the door, ans remove each fuse in turn until the interior light goes
    out..voila.....
    most alarms are set to trigger the voltage drop when an intruder opens the
    door and the interior light is switched on,....and since the alarm has its
    own built in fuse for this circuit you can connect the wire directly to the
    interior light itself, check wether or not you need to use the positive or
    negative side of the interior light, (i know gemini alarms use the negative
    side of the interior light circuit for voltage drop sensor) if this is the
    case you can connect to the pin switch in the door frame...............

    Cheers Steve. I knew which fuse it was but can't work out which wire it was
    amongst all those other ones! I am still a bit confused though. My alarm
    needs to be connected to the positive side, so where would i connect it? Any
    ideas?

    ok forget looking behind the fuse box, it will be there somewhere but along
    with about a thousand other wires, the best place to connect it is directly
    where the wire is plugged onto the interior light iself in the roof...use a
    blunt screwdriver and pop out the light unit and inside you will find 3
    wires.....only one of these will be live..the other 2 are earths, one of
    them is connected to the door pin switches to operate when the door is open,
    and the other is connected directly to the cars body to allow you to
    manually switch the light on via the switch on the light unit...
