[burnt turtle]

[Gozza]

[Commando]

[burnt turtle]

[Commando]

close enough to no worries. Rollin had these on his red EB XR6 from memory

AUIII also fit, think i got my old ones from bursons. put them on backwards and do a little chop chop of the grey strip. 5min max to install. dont forget orange globes for the clear repeater!!

Pardon me, are you requesting advice on modifying your side repeaters, or are you trying to sell backyard tobacco from the western suburbs on here?

[burnt turtle]

hahaha very good i pay that
seriously though do u need 2 modify the gaurd 2 fit vx 1's?

IIRC not the guard, just the repeater itself. I had to trim my std EB plugs to fit into my WK repeaters. Also I glued my repeaters to the guard (well, the mould on the guard), not sure if this is the case with VX repeaters.

[EDFalcon]

pretty sure they have a similare setup to the AUIII ones. dont have to chop the mould by the way i should have said you can either open up the guard with a sharp knife or shave back the repeater also with a sharp knife. either one works.

ok thanks guys

Come to think of it, EFFalcon posted up a tech thread on how to fit AU repeaters.

Here it is viewtopic.php?f=35&t=1878

Would you like to know how to use VHT on your dash as well????

[burnt turtle]

VHT? wat?

[Rollin]

VHT is paint dude....and no, you do not want to paint your dash!

VX ones fit ok, slightly loose though, so you might need to put a little silastic or something on them to keep them in place.

You can buy the proper plugs and connectors, which come with about 15cm of wiring, so you can solder the wires to your original harness and have connectors and plugs that fit properly.

the VY dont clip in they r 2 small,
the VX r close but the securin clips on them r broken so they fall out,
so either way im gona have 2 selastic or glue them in, is that a bad idea?

VX


VY

[Commando]

Glue can always apply heat & melt off, or use fishing wire & "saw" off

[LUXO_8]

chuck in new globes, selastic them in, job done

[SHY4D]

i dummy fitted wk indicators on my NC lane, they looked mad. should try a set of those. I ended up putting AU3 indicators, glued the bastards on

[burnt turtle]

so is it glue or selastic?
VX orVY?

[EDFalcon]

Look for some AUIII they go on with hardly any troubles and wont need to glue them on.

I will say, don't bother with BA repeaters. I bought some, they look rubbish. Personally, I would go for the VY ones, the squarer shape suits the style of the car better.

(they used gum to fix the munted antenna on their time travelling phone booth)
