Really looking forward to being able to see again!

 

Thanks for everything you've done so far!

Yeah absolutely fantastic mate, must say makes you wonder why VW didn't bother to fix it in the first place... :crazyeyes:

Quick Update:

 

I've just started to fit one to my C & encountered a problem - Some of the contacts I've been using are too small. I've spoken to my supplier & he is sending the correct ones. However these are double the cost, as a result I'm going to have to pass this cost on. Each loom will see an increase of £2.50.

 

Cheers all, & thanks for your support.

 

Andy.

Hi all:

 

Little update...

 

I've finally got round to fitting one to my C...

 

Results:

Results taken with the engine running.

Before - Across the bulb - Dipped beam - 10.71v - shocking!

 

(MUST be measured across the bulb, not + on the bulb & - on the battery/chassis, as there is a voltage drop down the - line as well...)

 

After - Across the bulb - Dipped beam - 13.20v. - Pretty much the charging voltage.

 

Thats 2.49v gain, which drives the bulbs at the normal wattage.

 

I will try & get hold hold of some data sheets for typical H4 bulbs - looking at volts vs wattage graphs.

 

Last photo is my rough setup...

 

Getting there...

 

Cheers all,

Andy.

Still know definate date on shipping I'm afraid - also you are at the bottom of the list so will have either the 2nd or 3rd batch ;)

 

I will accept cheques, paypal, postal orders or cash if your local... & if your local fitting is included at local meets :D

 

Heres a few a couple of pics I took the other day of the waterproof fuse holders to wet everyones appetite...

I like that fuse holder design!

Did you get some female loom plugs made up? By Female I mean the equivalent of the back of the headlamp unit.

 

I spoke to you regarding buying a couple off you at the South Coast meet.

Glad these are finally coming together, Andy. They're looking great :)

Hi Andy.

 

Good work. Love the fuse holders.

 

Are you going to make a list of who is in what batch? may be helpful. Could just do it from the requests in this thread?

[ace666 0]

thanks for getting back .

i realy dont mind beeing at the bottom of the list as long as you dont mind making me one . :)

many thanks

First small batch of 5 are going to be available for 29th April, which I will be taking with me to the bath/bristol meet... Reason is, I want to fit these myself, find any problems on the day & fix them on all future releases :) 2nd batch of around 10 will be available first 2 weeks of May. I have my own list of members - in order with version they want. I'll be sending out PMs to those people shortly.

 

Many Thanks,

Andy

Good man. Keep us up to date on how the fitting goes.

[Mark_Storm 0]

Awesome! I will be able to see in the dark soon :D

[storm_warning 0]

I was only thinking last night as I was fumbling my way through some dark lanes I'd never driven before how much I am looking forward to you getting to a point where you can start selling them!

 

I know I'm well down the list, but thanks for al the hard work so far.

[ReekieVR 0]

Great stuff Andy. Kit is looking fab so far.

Can you put me down for a 4 relay, 4 fuse plug and play option please. I installed a trimsport loom when i got the car about 6 years ago and now the connecting terminals to the realys have all corroded away.....

[Ginger60 0]

looks good so far man, let me know when they are ready!

 

Cheers

[chichee 0]

having read through this thread....there is alot of information to take in.

 

am i right in assuming that the best option, which is the plug and play option will cost £42.00 (does this include p&p)

 

if it is plug and play and price is £42.00 inc p&p then sign me up for one please!!
