aclwalker 3 Posted November 6, 2007 That is a possibility - Who would be up for this? Groups of 5 or 10 would be ideal...? Cheers, Andy. Andy, I'd think the fairest way to do it would be to ask those who were first in the queue before, assuming you still have that information. I think I must have been reasonably high up the list :lol: , although I don't know how near you got to me. Do you still have those records? It would be useful to post the list of names in their order so that people could judge whether to wait or try to do it themselves. Also, it might be an idea to take orders for the parts lists (i.e. a DIY kit), or if somebody organised bulk buying of these parts for those who want to do it themselves. I'd imagine that if everyone went off and bought the parts individually, then it might be more costly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mystic Rado 0 Posted November 6, 2007 Andy, I mentioned this earlier in the thread, but what I think would be brilliant, if you have the time to do it, would be an illustrated, detailed 'how to' on making your own loom following your design with links to suppliers for individual components and basic best practice construction advice. That way anyone who wants to make their own loom can have a crack at it with good basic instructions to follow and it should reduce some of the demand on you. Most of the info on the web relates to Golfs etc which use basic H4 connectors, so I think a 'how to' for the Corrado would fill a gap. As you know, it's more complicated because of the headlight plug arrangement. I'd do it myself, but I'm not really an electrical engineer and I wouldn't want to mislead anyone. But if you wanted to cooperate on it, I'm a journo and quite good at making other people's information accessible. Anyhow, the offer's there, if you're interested, drop me a PM some time :) Yep, I will be up for that... I'll combine the installation instructions with the build instructions & post it here. Cheers, Andy.[/quote:3s46tzxv] That's be good. Like said, let me know if there's anything I can do to help Cheers Jon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ive not read the whole 15 pages but are these the 4 relay dipped and main type looms and what was the cost? As you say you cant afford to do them, buying the materials etc, what if we sent the money before you had built them that way you can get them built to order basically, we pay you the money, you buy and build the looms then send them out, all of course if you have the time? That is a possibility - Who would be up for this? Groups of 5 or 10 would be ideal...? Cheers, Andy.[/quote:3wyw53ou] Hi Andy, Count me in for one of the groups of 5-10. Given the excellent feedback in the past, I'm willing to front up some dosh on this. PM me if you want to let me know the details of where I send it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mic_VR 3 Posted November 11, 2007 bloody hell that is one long old list, talk about people happy to see a solution to the standard lighting! :lol: Andy, how would you feel about sourcing all the parts and writing up full instructions and then just selling it as a complete kit that people can build themselves? I think the hardest part for people is sourcing all the connectors etc so if you have the ability to build a kit i'm sure people would be happy to just put it all together. I know I would, and I'm happy to send money for you to buy the parts as others have suggested Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

insomniak 0 Posted November 13, 2007 just been catching up on the news on these and I have no probs sending you the money up front... Like andy has said on a few occasions that he wont be making much money on these, I have no probs adding an extra £5 or so on the to the cost. After all he is doing most of us a favour by making these in his own time... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
