Relay Kit?

Hi Ray,

I'd be interested.

This may be a silly question (why break the habit of a life-time!!), but I presume the kit would also be ok for a '79 SC (for my son's car).
If so, then I'd be on for 2 kits.

Regards,

Richard
 
I havent see the kit as yet but I would like your thoughts on the max wattage? Below is an email from the company who would make up the l;ighting kit:
Hi Ray,
Thanks for getting these ideas over to me, that looks great. I would say that we can draft a first loom to be sent out to you for trial fitting. If all goes well we will be looking at a retail price of around £44.99 including VAT and delivery for a loom capable of having lights up to 80W approx. On the main beam.
 
Hi Guys,
I have had a reply regarding the headlight relay kit I wouuld appreciate your thoughts on the communication below?

Hi Ray,
Our unit would link directly to the bulbs themselves. We don’t tend to do the fuse box type as that doesn’t legislate for potentially corroded wiring and terminals. We like to replace the whole set up to make sure everything is fresh and functioning correctly.[8|]
I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this.

You've got me there Ray, I'm a mechancal engineer who's far more comfortable with spanners than I am with soldering irons! Auto electrics are a black art to me hence my reliance on the expertise of others...

My way of thinking would be that it is easier to tap into the fuse board rather than run full lengths of cabling to the headlamp units? I have not looked at how you gain access to the rear of the headlamps to run the feed wires through so I dont know how easy or hard the job is?


 
Graham,
I sent you a PM on this but am unsure as to whether it was sent.
