Nope still looks like a fraud

Someone must sell a sticker that says something like "my other car has 8 cylinders"

Looks good. You really need to get a set of the vertical lights though.

the vertical lights from the states are DIRT cheap...

if you want the japaneese spec ones though... be prepared to spend upwards of £500

all depends if you NEED the amber indicators..

Sneaky wiring - why sneaky wiring.....

EDGE · July 12, 2006, 06:08:20 AM

sneaky wiring because the flasher system wants to flash the 2 brake lights as turn signals, you now have one bulb, hence it flashes to fast...

then you have the fact that they are also the brake lights... which run a bizarre 'break circuit to flash when brake pedal is down' or 'make circuit when pedal is up to flash' .

tis a right royal bastid i tell ya.... ive got wires and resistors all over the place.. it works but im working on a much better way

Have a look for a no load flasher mate, normaly cost about $15 and designed for LED lights

EDGE · July 12, 2006, 06:22:31 AM

i would do matey, but the flasher unit is part of a biger unit that is used for all sorts of other things....

Ahh i see - you could have course done it easier way - new wire from brake pedal switch to tail lights = brake light, then just added a hidden bulb away somewhere hehehe

Yup although not a proper jap i.e. sill got orig mirros and no wheel arch extensions - but the lights are the horizontal slated ones - i.e.

ianjpage · July 12, 2006, 11:27:45 AM

(ps i know thats not the cobra but hey you get the point!)

EDGE · July 12, 2006, 11:51:35 AM

ahh... that could be a whole pain in the ass tryimng to get vertical lights on.. i *think* the wiring is slightly different as there is an extra blub holder on the jap harness.....
