Taillight wiring?
Anyone out there have any clues on how to wire indicators into oval taillights. My cars a 60, but i have some 57 oval tailights I'd like to run. but
I don't want to run extra indicators.....I've seen it done B4, But I'd like to know how to do it? Do I fit extra globes into the housing? Or is
there anyway to route the indicator signal to the stop lamp globe?
Hmmm?
Any ideas?

Hi Humpty
60s Holdens did it using one bulb somehow, maybe check out some Holden wiring diagrams.

By the way...How's the STi conversion coming? Got some big brakes under my Squareback that might interest you!....I love how this car stops! Might

Hi Simon,
the american bugs with oval tails had this, and they had a different signal indicator stalk/switch which had 5 wires attached to them. I don't think
the cops would like seeing these on your car... plus a lot of people will get confused! best to get extra indicators!
speeding is bad!
relax - god's in charge

Hi Simon
No worries.
STI Bit slow at the moment, lots of OT which is hard to knock back. Bought a G50 the other day, not having that was holding me up in some areas, I
needed it to work out where its going to sit in the pan and CV angles etc.

the holdens used a globe with two elements in the brake lights, the search you want is on the park lights/indicator setup
