Would there any occurence of "overload" ?? Route the wire straight from batteries? Can it pose any danger? Plan to add on/off switch....so my cabin light not glowing from day till nite Still not dare to tap any electrical wire....this will be my first electric/electronic diy Hi agin, Bro... Re "overload?"... As long as total current consumption does NOT exceed amperage value of ori socket fuse, there shld b no danger... As for Bro Wankel's wankel idea, same same...with a fuse inline, there's practically no danger as long as it fulfills basic rule ie consumption does not exceed fuse value... And, of course...wiring used supports total amps... With good help, yu can even use an ori Proton Ignition Timer...& set up a circuit so that the lamp(s)/LEDs are on ONLY when door(s) are open & wld auto off few secs after door(s) are closed... GOOD luck !!

Hi Bro... Hv been using 1 set of such SPs fr week 1 of my Gaga. .. IMO no performance gain.. More of Q, reliability & long term use and thus gaining confidence & peace of mind...

My wheels are stock number 14 alloys and I think it to be a good size for Daisy, she came stock with 185/60-14 black rubber boots shod upon her wheels and I think it's a fairly good choice, but I'm curious if anybody is running 175/65-14 on their Saga and what their views are? ..... I'm happy enough with the 185 size to stick with it unless there's a compelling reason. Happily for me the extreme wear my Ducaro's suffered in their first 1000 km....... but remain certain not to buy them again despite them driving very nicely. Hi Bro... Understand reasons for yr pref for 175/65R14 donuts,namely comfort & FC... But...with higher aspect ratio, wldn't there b possible contact with wheel arches etc ? Anyway Ducaros r not available here except (it seems...) only as OEM fittings @factory... Replacement is Duraplus...which IMO are good enuf for "unker-driving" usage. My Question.... Why r u so certain NOT 2buy Ducaros agin? They served me ok until my recent changeover to Durapluses... Wld hv got Ducaros if they had been available! ps. Now GY Assurance Duraplus is available...with the much touted xtra Dupont Kevlar layer!!

Hi Bro... Let's push aside that 100k Km w/in that set time factor thingy...a definitely IMPOSSIBLE feat by we "unker-drivers"... More concerned abt juz 2 aspects... 1. Roadholding...izzit same/better/worse than std Duraplus? 2. Does the xtra DuPont Kevlar ("bulletproof"??) layer offer good/better protection (as claimed by GY) against Msian road hazards? Bro kenjilew? Anyone? Tqvm.

Hi Bro... Why is that so...one may ask? Here? Cos of cheap labour... In UK, DIY car/home maintenance had been/was a common interest & activity years ago...even when me juz started working... Many mthly mags were available with lots of help... However, now with increasing labour charges & coupled with (soon rising) GST implementation...mayb...jyz mayb ppl wld pick up need 2DIY where possible...2save expenses. ..

Agreed with wat's happening Down Under...affluency...legality...etc...in spite of high costs... Here in Msia... A commonly heard comment/response...as in doing an EO replacement service... "Why do it myself? Need 2buy tools..reli dun kno how...scared if DIY may damage this or that...etc etc.. Send to under tree magician only RM5 labour nia...cheap cheap...fast fast...all done!"

I'll try see if I can use the spray method, not the best at spraying even layers of paint. Hi agin, Bro... To DIY spraying. ... 1. Mask WELL other areas yu r not spraying. ..take time 2pay attention esp to "border"areas..masking tape is cheap! 2. Shake spray can well. Test spray b4 start. 3. Spray THINly...nvr try 2cover all in 1 spray... Many thin coats are much better than 1 thick coat (paint wld "run" if sprayed too thick!) DIY-ing gives THAT kind of personal satisfaction/feeling which $$$ can nvr buy... Enjoy... ps. Wat yu r thinking of doing is an easy DIY...worth trying lo...
