just a quick question, do i need a separate rely (flasher unit)for ny hazards or can i use the same one for direction?

The same flasher will do both jobs - it's all in the wiring

only prob i'm getting is that because you need a permanent live for the hazards it's somehow going back to the rest of the loom and powering evrything else up. so i think i'll just stick another relay in,!! grrr

Here's a diagram I picked up along the way if it helps......

i went the two relay way just to make the wiring easier but have seen it done the other way too
are you using the savage switches
