Re: 88 340 special edition? on the bay

Change in circumstances means that my holiday plans are off, and this car is now up for sale again :(

Hope it goes to a good home.

Re: Wipers wont turn off...

Yes, I have given it 'the benefit of the doubt' a couple of times it just keep on going. A bit like that bloody energiser bunny. As I say, I can't even get intermittent, if you select intermittent it just keeps wiping normally. The only change is if you select fast wipe. So I now have a toggle switc...

Re: Cigarette lighter socket + mount panel

I was playing around on the driveway sorting out some behind the dash wiring and had taken bits like that out and put them on my tool box. When my friend pulled onto the drive he knocked the toolbox and the lighter in it's panel fell off in front of his car.... the rest is history :P Yes it can wait...

Re: Confusion over after market rev counter fitting

I figured there was probably a wire behind the dash, but the way I did it wasn't really hard, once I'd found the right wire.

Will get a picture of the install some time tomorrow.

Wipers wont turn off...

This is mildly annoying... ...and yes today I am practising the art of understatement :lol: As soon as I turn the ignition on, the wipers pick up on standard speed, no matter what position the stalk is in. I can make them faster by clicking to that speed, but not any slower or off. For now I have cu...

Re: Confusion over after market rev counter fitting

Managed to get this sorted yesterday. Rev counter now sitting on top the the glove box. (It was too big to sit on the dash). All wired in, in not too shabby a fashion I might add :) Didn't need any kind of regulator luckily, just cut into the Grey wire coming from the coil box. There are a few more ...

Cigarette lighter socket + mount panel

Need the panel out the dash and the socket to replace the one from my '88 GL

Had an accident involving gravity and a rolling car... The old one is now a little flat :(


Hopefully someone has these bits kicking around?

Re: Confusion over after market rev counter fitting

Found It... Looked at the right page of the green book (I swear, I'm working with amateurs here lol) The voices say "cut the green wire" So, quick checklist: Lengths of wire, all the same colour to add to later confusion - check connector block for joining wires together - check tape for 'insulation...

Confusion over after market rev counter fitting

Trying to fit an after market rev counter to my car, and have a major headache figuring out which the feed wire for the coil is, so I can get the signal. The green book section just confused the hell out of me, So I was wondering if someone could point me to the right wire from experience? I can put...
