What a great feeling....!

I've been looking at the electrics for about 2 months now, and keep walking away. I was on the verge of paying somebody as I really didn't have a clue.

Yesterday, I bit the bullet and caller Mark @ Mac 1 and it's all coming together. The horn works (one small step for me). I then called about 20 people and let them here my horn, unfortunatly I couldn't show them that the indicators also flash....what a great feeling.

Thanks again for your help Mark, get ready for lots more questions.

Actually there's a few lights just behind that long tunnel. I've just got mine wired t'other week. Its great turning the light off in the garage and keep switching them on

It helps if you sit in the car and make brum brum noises at the same time

Well done Ewan
Once I get back from Nigeria, I'll have to come and see and how it's done.

Why do they call Port Harcourt "The Garden City"?...... Becauase they can't spell Stramash.

Good news mate, I've just started wiring mine up too. I was really scared about doing the dashboard bit but Mark sounds like he could do it with his eyes closed (which is pretty helpful as he can't see my car!)
