hazell ep91 sr Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Swap all looms out . Will have to splice your bootloom in if your not using glanza boot loom. Swap all looms out . Will have to splice your bootloom in if your not using glanza boot loom. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hazell ep91 sr Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Will need exhaust too. And have to modify indicatot stalk bracket or cut yours off and weld on glanza bracket which is what ive done. Just buy a glanza wayyyy easier l Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hughes21 Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 Why is the interior loom needed just Out of interest ?? I've got lots of spare stuff soWon't be too much to convert so that's why I fancy doing it . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hazell ep91 sr Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 To plug into ecu mate and new dials and indicator stalks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blitz Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 please just buy a glanza and put a starlet bodykit on it it will save so much agro Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hazell ep91 sr Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I agree. Just did mine and was a massive ballache. If it wasnt for my amazingly good engineer and mechanic of a dad i would of been fucked. Lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hughes21 Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 But surely If you had the engine loom , dash and interior loom all complete it's pretty straight forward if you have someone with wiring knowledge with you !?? And buying a glanza is a lot more expensive haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hazell ep91 sr Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 If you swap all the looms out it shouldnt be as bad. But you will run into problems like indicator bracket not fitting etc. Give yourself a big time scale to do it. I gave myself 2 weeks of evenings and weekends and that turned into almost 6 weeks.

hughes21 Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 That's the plan all I need now is an interior loom then il have all 3 . The stupid thing is my brother has just scrapped a glanza with full looms etc that would have been handy ! I'm hoping to do it in a week but Woking on it everyday Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hazell ep91 sr Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Will take longer than a week lol. Just Dont get in a state when you run into problems. Just walk away and think. I wish i bought a runaround in the meantime to stop pressure of getting it done lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hughes21 Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 I'm gona a get someoe clued up on looms to wiring it up for me then il Chang the engine . It seems so word you have p change every loom when there similar engines haha did you have full interior loom ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bucketep91 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I reckon it could be done in a few days if you had everything you need and know what your facing. The actual conversion isnt hard its just the things you come across along the way that hold you up.Still wish i baught a glanza and had it and my car side by side to do the conversion.I baught a gt and atripped it and baught glanza looms etc then never started theconversion till over a year later.

hazell ep91 sr Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Yeah but spliced my boot loom and earthed fuel pump. As on glanza dash loom there is no earth for the fuel pump. I chopped plug off and matched wires. Did the same with roof loom. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hughes21 Posted August 17, 2012 Author Share Posted August 17, 2012 With a full glanza interior loom will I still have to splice it or will it go straight in ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm hoping to do it in a short amount pfTime I use the car everyday so can't not have it for a long time that's why I'm trying to find out everything I need and the problems people have faced it should then make it a little easier Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hazell ep91 sr Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Buy a runaround for the meantime if you rely on the car that much. I regret not buying a runaround. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
