Parts Shopping Check List
Assuming you are performing the light conversion using Euro Tail Lights and Angel Eye Headlamps as I recommend (the easy way) on this site, it might be useful to do a double check of the things you are likely to need.
The vast majority of items can be had by mail order, the advertisers on this site will be as good a source as any. The internet tends to make suppliers of this kind of stuff quite competitive as they know you are only a mouse click away from another supplier who is maybe cheaper than them.
Throughout the articles you may find links to individual suppliers and other resources that I use. So, its time to double check your shopping list before you start. First, the specific parts you will be buying in:
- A pair of Euro style tail lamps.
- A pair of Angel Eye head lamps.
- 4 Omron relays.
- 4 Omron relay bases.
- A short length of DIN rail.
- A pair of side repeater lights for the front wings.
- 4 diodes (they come only in packs of ten actually).
- An illuminated fog lamp switch.
- A length of (black outer) four core suitable cable, probably around 7 meters long.
- A fuse arrangement of your choice (in line or blade units)
Thats the big stuff. Other than that, make sure you have some assorted automotive cable in various colours, and you will also need some plastic cable ducting (look under the bonnet if unsure – that stuff) together with the usual assortment of connectors, spades, tape, soldering stuff and cable ties that should be in any automotive toolbox.
You are now good to go, lets make a start…..
