Just yank the horn cover off. It's scary, I know. I think I have one spare clip for it if you break one.
I found a place to buy sticky chrome trim. I'd have a go at my own bumpers but they're pretty scratched up and porous.

Hey mate, nice car

The brake warning light needs to be unplugged and plugged back in again in order to reset it.... I never figured out why but have had that on plenty of GLD's. The washer is about the most common mk1 electrical fault, i've found. It could be as simple as a dirty switch or as bad as a messed up fusebox, likewise with the lowbeams.

If both lowbeams are out and the fuses are OK, i'd look at the switch first.

oh for the brake warning light thingo, just disconnect the battery for about 30 secs, these drains the capacitor that's part of the circuit for it, and the light goes out.

had to do that on my GLD for roady, and after i did a booster/MC upgrade.

I'm pretty sure that car has a brand spanking new fuse block in it.

Nice one mate.

Good quality pictures too! D3000? 18-55mm lens?

What pictures I don't see a thing.

[dubmc]

yeah it has a brand new fuse box...any electrical issues would be minor i assume...

tidy car for a project...i'll upload some pics showing the difference some coilovers+white walls will make.

[Jace]

That looks awesome. Almost makes me want whitewalls.

yeh fuse box is brand new.. i've got the stalk off the column and the high / low beam switch feels stuck in high position.. will get it sorted.

thanks for the brake fluid light tip.. dash lights are really a peeve.


@16v_kid it is a d3000 with stock lens 18 - 55mm
