hiya

may i pick ur brains please, as mine is left hand drive, the only connections ive got to make under the bonnet its the live and neutral to the battery and also the connection to the back of the head light for the main beam section

ive got some soare baterry cabke and a bus bar, if i simply turned the loom the other way round and extended the the battery leads via a bus bar does it matter which headlight ive got to connect the section into please, does it matter if i connect it into the right or left headlight please

as i could then just extend the baterry leads via the bus bar and then run the lead through the drivers side and not have to mess around,

does that make sense please, just trying to think of an easy way to do it , in converting it from a left hand to right hand drive in by simply turning the loom the other way round and extending the leads via a bus bar

thks again so much for the help

plus got all the brackets on today, blimey arnt thkse rivnuts fun to do, had to go and get a 10.5mm drill bit then realised had to leave the bolt in before i hammered them into the bumper, as if i left the bolt out and hammered them in it would make the rivnut loose

got there in the end , but now got to find all the part numbers fornthe front grill and arches as all the screws were knackered

thks

If you go through the grommet on the drivers side, the only wire that will need extending is the feed from the driving light switch to the driving light relay which is fitted onto a bracket secured by the battery clamp bolt.
That can be done in the engine bay.
You do not connect anything at the head light, that is done at the fuse box, the battery connections are as per LR instructions.
The fog light side will not be affected as the relay is fitted by, and feed taken from the fuse box.
As for the knackered screws, main dealers for self tappers:eek:
Stainless steel flange head screws from ebay.
 
hiya longdog

the loom i got controls a pair of spots and a pair of fogs via the 4 way switch panel i got, with 2 x switches and 2 x blanks

does this pic make more sense , there is a double plug that it looks as though i disconnect a wire from the back of the head light then plug one end of the loom in its place

does that make sense , just thought as mine was LHD as ive not got much room on the left hand side as ive got my synergy box fitted where the bracket would go for the relaysb

the connection into the fuse box is that the one on the drivers side and is a grey plug please

thks and hopefully the pic may make a but more sense of it all , lolol

the loom is orginally from V6 double lamp pods with plinths , but ive just got the switch panel and the main loom and a small one that plugs intonthe white plug that goes onto the internal fuse box and 2 x switches

it says the main loom is called H1 and the other bit is called H4 , the H4 part number is stc53049

just hope it makes more sense

thks

That is a different loom to the one I got with mine, though I did buy the 2 kits at different times. It also explains where my main beam connector originated.
Have you got the part number for that loom so I can look up any info on it.
 
these are the numbers ive got on the looms

and its got a name on them called vestatec automotive engineering
