Recommended Posts

hello all!!

i've done a search and cannot find what im looking for...

during compliancing im guessing they have somehow disconnected the fog lights on my S2 Stag

so I wana find what they have done - have checked the fuse, is OK.

when i turn the switch on for the fog lights i can also hear the relay clicking on.

so I wana take out whole indicator/foglight thing to look behind at the wiring to see if they have cut anything or if the globes are ok....

I cant see how i can get to the wiring from behind under the bonnet....

so before I break something.... can someone please tell me how to take it out of the bar before I break something.....

:D

and heres a few pics of my first Stag!! :laugh:

haha welcome, looks nice too.

generally the compliance shops just cut the wires so you are on the right track.

I haven't take the bar off one of these, but if you get it up on a jack can you get to the lights from underneath?

to one side of the exterior cover/lense of the encluser there is a cover that pop's out (use a very small/fine flat head screwdriver) exposing a screw, unscrew it and the unit comes out :laugh:

you're stag looks fantastic :D

spot on dude!!

i noticed it was a separate piece but wanted to make sure before i broke it just incase

( i did look underneath but all the plastics are there and cant be bothered rippin em off :laugh: )

i took it off and the wires all look intact...???

so im thinking im missing a fuse?? can anyone tell by lookin at the pic?? (im thinking that blue empty one with no fuse, is that for the foggies maybe...???)

i wanted to check that there actually is power going to the globe but cant find my test light nor my multimeter.... :D

i need sleep now so it will have to wait untill tomorrow....

(and thanks for the comments fellas!! :yes: )

I haven't got my stag yet, so I'm just going on common sense here. But it looks like the cover has all the answers on it, blue one to the right is 'start' the next over to the right is 'head lamps' and everything else seems to be in place as per the pic on the cover, so going on that I'd say the one missing is definitely for the fog lamps.

Cheers, Jeff

    • This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O
    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
