removed my hicas
hi gonzo i used the lockout bar from fastpartz £75,got the tie rods on ebay for £28 for the pair, feels so good to get the hicas off, you will need a good 18mm socket with a decent ratchet, 17mm open spanner for the tie rods, some heat and a lot of swearing..good luck well worth it..

removed my hicas
Hi just to say a few things about removing the hicas system, absolute nightmare had to get petrol tank deflector plate off first,got 2 bolts off and had to chisel the other 2 off so now no protector plate, main bolts holding the hicas in place stuck solid wd40 and plenty of heat and a strong bar to get them moving,very tight,replaced the tie rods also made the job that bit easier.getting the lockout bar into position quite a job but eventully got it big sye of relief. now brilliant fitted the bypass tube to the front and removed the hicas silenoid easy enough. ye ha no more leaking steering fluid. thats the car almost sorted apart from a respray! just thought i would share my story with you guys...

Any sparkies on here? urgent help
hi you have 4 reds and 3 blacks, 2of the blacks are loop in/out neutrals.looks like they have used 3 reds as 2 way switches, leaving you with a red and a black, they are your switch wires to the pendants,1st find these 2 wires. after that pair the other 2 blacks together. next separete your remaining reds these should be connected to your switch,your live red to common, the other 2 too 1and 2.now connect your switch wires{red and black from the start}to 1 and 2. lol sound easy. thats the easiest way to explain it...hope this helps..
