Pete Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 Either take a feed off your side indicators, or get rid of them and use the wiring direct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 Jees, two compliments in one week Last time I took the car to Ford's the bloke on the parts counter said ' I've never seen them sort of mirrors on an Escort before' Well der........ If I didnt have the indicators in the mirrors I'd go for Focus ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPITROAST Posted October 10, 2002 Author Share Posted October 10, 2002 If I was to take a feed off it, where would it go through can you explain it a bit more please :tongue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sortedford Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 get some scotch locks, which just clip over the wires already there. It will cut into the wire alrady there and will allow you to run a extra wire upto the indicator in the mirror Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 When I done mine I ripped off the inner arch liner on the front wheels, this lets you reach up to behind the wing where the indicators are. Use a scotch lock like ian said, this will split the wire for you, then run a new feed through the sleeve that already carries the wiring into the doors, hide the new wiring behind the doorcard and Roberts yours fathers brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPITROAST Posted October 11, 2002 Author Share Posted October 11, 2002 I'll give it a go tomorrow. I was given a load of wires with them so will that go from the mirror to the the new feed area of the side repeaters Oh yeah and whats a Scotch Lock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted October 12, 2002 Share Posted October 12, 2002 Yes mate, the wires need to go into the existing indicator wiring. Scotch locks clip onto a wire and split it into two feeds all in one go. Any local electrical place should do 'em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
