JC Posted November 24, 2007 Author Share Posted November 24, 2007 Keep this up John and you will be worse than me , lookin good fella Thanks! got round to adding a few things i been meaning to for a while and gave it a good clean! before: http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa82/lordjc1983/Silver%20Escort/DSC00564.jpghttp://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa82/lordjc1983/Silver%20Escort/DSC00584.jpghttp://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa82/lordjc1983/Silver%20Escort/DSC00562.jpg very grubby car! this time of year and many motorway miles sends alot of filth up the car, fitted my front flaps to help elevate the problem.Used the Megs super glass towel and the Megs glass cleaner, very impressed with the results... have nice clear glass! Fitted a little mesh to front, its cabled tied in for now while glue sets. 1st decent (ish, poor light and rain doesnt help) pics of the new nudge strips down the sides. http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa82/lordjc1983/Silver%20Escort/DSCF1124.jpghttp://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa82/lordjc1983/Silver%20Escort/DSCF1119.jpghttp://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa82/lordjc1983/Silver%20Escort/DSCF1112.jpghttp://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa82/lordjc1983/Silver%20Escort/DSCF1111.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too much planned for this in the near future... as not the time, money or weather! Just a few small things still, sill protectors, color code the number plate light. Come the new year want to sort the audio out as its still the standard head unit and up rated speakers, want to get a hard drive fitted in there, with sub and decent head unit. Then a magnex.... tints and see where i'm at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC Posted December 7, 2007 Author Share Posted December 7, 2007 (edited) Added the 2nd fog light to rear. My thanks to Steve for explaining how to in simple terms for me to understand lol! took the boot inside trim off, lots of little screws,I got a Fog light bulb holder from a breakers, then extended the bit of wires on it to reach from the other fog light. Then using scotchlock connectors, blue things look like this: http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/7235.jpg make connecting into exisiting loom really easy! wiring diagram looks like this: http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/7461.jpg with one of the said connectors in use: http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa82/lordjc1983/Silver%20Escort/DSC00596.jpg then worked fine: http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa82/lordjc1983/Silver%20Escort/DSC00597.jpg just need to get a new bulb as the one in was dead! and a random pic: "replica vs genuine" http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa82/lordjc1983/Silver%20Escort/DSC00593.jpg Edited December 25, 2007 by Lordjc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig855S Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 so i take it that bulb isnt a fog bulb as the brightness difference is huge. I wired in my twin fogs last weekend too. i aint looking unsymmetric in foggy conditions lol.Theyre also great for getting the message across to saxo drivers who tailgate u while having front fogs on for no reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted December 7, 2007 Author Share Posted December 7, 2007 not sure what the bulb was, some random one to test, have flashed them on for the with fogs behind me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
