The_Notorious_C_A_T Posted January 6, 2010 Author Share Posted January 6, 2010 That, I would love to see ^^^ Nah probably wouldn't be great. Lots of wheelspin, can't launch my car worth to fuck lolwhere was that sequential shifter from mate? do you need to do any other mods to fit?I got it from off here actually. Had to mod it a bit but generally straight fit as most of the work was done for me. Was a run of 3 apparently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The_Notorious_C_A_T Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 I had seen a few topics about rear fog lights for MOT's, and today mine seemed to stop working so I decided to finally put it into the rear clusers as I don't like the fog light just randomly being stuck on the bottom of the car, looks shit in my opinion. Since a few folk have asked about them I thought I'd take some pics to hopefully help out future members Unfortunately it's not a comprehensive guide due to having one already, but for members who don't have one, all you need is a switch, some wiring from the switch long enough to reach the rear clusters and hook the switch up to an earth and live.To start with, here's how it looked:Again I never took pics of me stripping down the old one, and since my car had one, it had the wiring running through the cabin already, that needed stripped off, I also did a continuity check to make sure there was no problem with the wiring, hence the multimeter in the pic:Since I was planning on using one of the reverse lights, I doubled checked to make sure they worked as well before I bothered to do the swap! And also to confirm which bulb I needed to use:Once I had confirmed that, I set about cutting off the wiring and the bulb, remembering to leave enough wire to make it easy to rejoin the connection:Once I had snipped hte wires, again I checked to make sure that the reverse light that I wanted to keep still worked, as I was unsure of whether or not it was a circuit of both lights, and one wouldn't work without hte other, it wasn't so it was all good to seal the wires and protect them from water, I did this with some heat shrink, although tapped them up as well to make sure:Once that was completed I just joined the wires from the bulb to the wires from the switch, ran the wire through the grommit and plugged the bulb back in.I didn't take any more pics except when I was finished as it was getting real cold! And due ot the light, one didn't come out well but here's the finished article:I would like to have had the whole car in shot to show it isn't just a reverse light, but light conditions means I couldn't. Although here was the pics anyway:Although I know the bulb is the wrong colour just now, but that will get sorted soon enough! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Nice improvement, its all in the attention to detail! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Very helpful mate I need to wire a fog into my cluster for the mot Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The_Notorious_C_A_T Posted January 12, 2010 Author Share Posted January 12, 2010 Nice improvement, its all in the attention to detail!Totally agree there bud, still need to tidy up alot of the wiring as fankly it looks shit but it's to cold ;)Very helpful mate I need to wire a fog into my cluster for the mot Glad it helps mate, also did a post about it in the ecu/wiring forum, although it's basically the same as what I posted in this thread.Yesterday my blitz turbo timer finally arrived so today I decided to fit it since I am working from home Although the harness that came with it wasn't needed for some reason, although it could be that the car already had one since it already has a turbo timer.Few pics while installing, although it was real cold and raining up here so there isn't that many pics of decent quality, also due to where I had to mount stuff as it was really awkward!:The abortion that was under there already:The mess removed:What I actually needed without the harness:Area before install:All finished:Wiring was nice and simpe, only 3 grounds to do really. Job done Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The_Notorious_C_A_T Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 Little update, got the knocking sorted out, well a mate did lolAnd he also fitted my ultra racing rear arb and trd rear beam bushes:No pic of the bushes though, bit of a hard place to get pics just now!
