Hi all, well I finally found some time to work on the ol girl. The list of things to fix and improve seems to grow ever longer the more time I spend around her!! A sore point since the purchase was the headlight situation, although its had the 12v conversion - the headlights have been very dull. After sifting through the birds nest of wiring, dodgey fuses and bubblegum, I fitted up some new/old headlights I have been working on with LED halo for the parker lights and swapping the original parker light for LED indicators ( so I can remove the ones that are currently fitted to the bumperbar!! )

Headlights were patchy to say the least!

Thought I better fix the horn while I was here!

Yay - horn should work now - goodbye switch under the dash :-)

The new look halos - Kachow! :-)

Even better when the new LED indicators work with the original indicator relay!!
