Well Miateers,
I finally got my Light Minder installed.  It works relatively well
although teh instructions were somewhat misleading.  The instructions
say first to attach the RED wire to the fuse that supplies the
instrument panel lamp power, and then to find another fuse which makes
the buzzer sound (with the headlights on) by touching the WHITE wire to
the other fuses.  Closer examination of the instructions show that for
applications other than American cars, attach the WHITE wire to a
headlight related fuse and the RED to a fuse whose circuit is switched
by the ignition switch.  I think that i attached the White wire to the
"TAIL" fuse and the RED to the fuse that powers the cigarette lighter.

In any case, it worked well.  And even continued to work when attached
with the double-sided tape to a spot on the backside of the lower dash.
Later,
Tom
