    SWB electrics ... again

    I have been doing some reading around this topic. It seems that the 1968 model was not made with too many relays. As I have been rewiring my headlamps, horns and fog lamps lately with original colour wires, I have been thinking about the relative lack of relays and also what to do with the 'new' driving' lamps. I have read most of the Early 911 threads and I was wondering if anyone has a preferred wiring schematic or similar for driving lights (not below the bumper fog lights) on an SWB? For these, I could go the more common route via the high beam switch/fuse adding a relay and even a cut off switch. If I do that, should I add any more relays for the headlights while I am at it?

    Or, I could leave well enough alone and run a separate/new circuit for the driving lights, with an under the dash switch, with its own relay and fuse (or even via the #3 location, as that is for a non-existent heater)?
