Oil pressure gauge
Hi
I am looking to fit an oil pressure gauge using the existing sender. I can find 52mm VDO gauges which I am happy with, I will have to make a new centre console board to fit it.
Question is do I need 0-5 bar or 0-10?
Cheers
Ben

Wiring ideas
Hi All As you may know I need to rewire my 914/4. I've been think that whilst I doing it I may as well update it. I am thinking of running LED's all round (headlights, spotlights, fig lights, rear lights, gauges) basically the works, to try and keep the stress off the alternator and give me some pro...

Re: Wiring loom........spotlights on hold....
Hi All I have managed to source a replacement harness in the US (no idea what its like but for $50 its worth a punt!), which is great news. Thanks for your help. Now the tricky part....

Re: Wiring loom........spotlights on hold....
Thanks but its probably a bit far gone...if Im ripping it all out I may as well replace it properly, its just I never thought a bit of wiring would be €2,800!

Wiring loom........spotlights on hold....
Hi, me again.......
So, the auto electrician came today....turns out my loom is shot (melted and generally screwed). I need a new one, anyone got any suggestions? I don't relish spending €2,800 on from from Kroon......
Thanks

Fitting Cibie Spotlights
Hi I have two pairs of Cibie bonnet mount spotlights I would like to fit. I will only fit two I think as 4 may be OTT. Has anyone fitted them before on here? I am trying to work out whether the standard alternator will be sufficient and some tips on wiring - I'd like to run the wires through the sup...

Re: Rear panel needed
Thanks guys. I ordered one from Design 911....... useless. Went from a week delivery to 3 week delay to a further 6 week delay - they had no problem taking my money at the time though!
Got a refund and got my welder to repair the original one.
Last time I use Design 911.
Hopeless.
