Danny P's headlight loom guide and a couple of other q's.
« on: 21 August 2011, 18:37 »
Any idea where I can find it? His website is down...?

I'm in the middle of an ABF swap and thought I might as well make my own uprated headlight loom to plug directly in to the fusebox but I'm not sure where to start?

Also what do I do with the ISV and it's controller from my mk2, discard it?

Thanks. I've had a look at that but was hoping to go direct from the fusebox.

Better to go straight from the battery, the whole point of the loom is to lessen voltage drop between the battery and headlights.

He's not making them anymore as it costs more for parts than he sells them for

Costs around £25-£30 in parts IIRC. I'd recommend using 3 relays. 1 each for each headlamp and 1 combined for high beam. Will be better for separation if a relay fails.
