I wouldn't know if they are on line. I went to my local Halfords in Huddersfield when I was at work and picked it up.

You can indeed hook it up, Rover used a relay just protect themselves in case anything happened. They also used the smaller feed wire for the torch to be the signal wire for the relay.

If it was me for an easy install I would just plug the torch loom in as is and then just wire the aux socket to the standard 12v socket in the center console. Much easier and then its protected by the same fuse and stuff.

As for earth any metal nut/bolt/screw that comes into contact with the body of the car will work as an earth.
