Are you running a narrowd beam? And what height have you got this sitting at?

no narrowed beam or lowering job yet.just getting ready for rego.this image was photo shopped by a friend,so i could get an idea of what the end
product will look like.so far have got it tuned up and running like a clock. painted the rims up ala rattlecan grey and cream.also new 145s on the
front and 165 x 80 onthe rear.the only reason its not wearing hubcaps is its got 4.5 inch wide type 3 rims on the back ...so no lugs for type 1
caps.damn it. so thats how it will look .also bought an solid visor from beetle nut james.still looking for a rear venetian.also need to re hook up my
semaphores and get rego .then in with the 4 inch beam and drop the rear down.have just secured some ppq plates for its new "title". the 8 bomb.

well my sparkie,mal from superior auto elec,said he tried a few things to get them to work.but the eaisiest (prolly not cheapest) and most reliable
way ,was to send them to rapid rewind and have them converted to 12 v.i havnt recieved the bill yet ,but reckon it would be between 200 to 250 clams
for both. you can buy them new already 12v ,prolly worth looking into.im just too lazy.i like to use what ive already got.also should mention
,semaphores do not flash.so well be also addressing this.so they work first time every time.cause just like a dole bludger,if they dont work,there no
good.

I purchased a 4" from Airkewled, spent a little more but was alot less hassle then having to send my steering arms away to DUB etc. With that said,
thier shit looks on point, so I cant say "dont buy a DUB beam", I simply chose the other because I'm lazy.
Airkewld, DUB or Skinned Knuckles is another one from Melbourne you can try.
