Not done it today, but yesterday I hand polished the whole truck.
Took me 2.5 hrs, with MER polish, looks mint.
Very easy to buff up, even when its been on a while.

Finally wired up my hella 3000s yesterday but didn't fit and test them. Tested tonight, sidelights work but no main beam... Took a relay out then one came on lol. Think I have a dead relay. Bloody hope not cos it's brand new! Gonna try again another night when the midgies aren't as rough!

Ordered some new Nightbreaker Ultimate bulbs, after getting pulled over last night by Plod, the N/S dipped beam is out. It started to get serious when he realised I has 3 rifles in the truck. Turns out he's a fellow shooter in his spare time. Looks like I may have a new friend

Started to clean out the engine bay after a 90cm deep mud bath, its a mess down there

I fitted a pair of Ring Rally Giant+ spots to the front of mine yesterday and wired them up today.

Found out that there's a feed to the headlamps which is live when sidelights or full beam are on. Oops. When I tested the wires I just checked that it was live with full beam and not live with dipped. Neglected to check if it was live with sidelights.

So, next weekend I'll be rewiring my spotlights to the correct wire!!

its the dim/dip willibob
follow the wiring diagram because the polarity changes and ya need to use both wires to the relay

Cheers, I'll go have a squizz at the wiring diagram...

good boy because it aint your normal earthed relay.

#312 by krutly , Sun Mar 30, 2014 8:37 pm

would unplugging this bad boy not get round the dim dip spot issue ? (not actually tried it myself)

#313 by 123hotchef , Sun Mar 30, 2014 8:38 pm

it may but wiring up the relay with 2 of the wires from the headlamps instead of 1 from them and a earth works better and ya get to keep the dim dip

I attempted to tint out the side windows on my canopy. I partially succeeded, they are dark enough to not see tools in there, but by no means a great job
