Great work. Painful but it'll be worth it.

Those export lights, from my car's tail were outside, ala Ferrari, and only blinked. The rewire turned out to be simple: the inside brake light wire (new wire) just bypassed the turn signal; outers lost the wire from the turn signals.





Easy.

And she's on the truck off to panel shop for paint <br/>Ppg brand paint in the later corvette Laguna blue can't wait to get her back <br/>

Thanks for the light info
We ran a wire from second brake light
To the brake tail lights
Cut the indactor wires for the inside light and cut the Brake and tail light wire for the outside
Light
I ended up buying export corvette indactor lights

Hey, that roll off is on the wrong side of the highway !!!!

JK, congrats Dale. I can't imagine your excitement at finally getting her lipstick and makeup on. You really blazed through this project, would have taken me years.

Looking forward to seeing that color applied!!

what year car? I assume it is old enough to not require the RHD conversion

Dalesc4

Well if I'm luck might be tomorrow lol

It's an 88 model
And yes cars 25 years or older can go on club rego (driven 90days per year)
And 30 years on full rego
