@ Roberto:

Thx mate... Mac D's is usually the place that our members use to meet eachother..

Except voor the bigger event's like "Full Speed" and "Viva Italia"

Don't know if you ever heard/read about them ?


@ big al:


Why didn't ya ask me at once

I have build in under my dashboard and under my front seats green neon tubes, which is controlled by one switch.

The second switch is for my gearknob, which has a green glowing line as you can see... (i am sorry, it's hard to see at the night picture)

The other two switches has no function jet, they are spare voor some extra features, maybe build in later

The red switch however, is het main power switch, because, here in Holland, the police doesn't like such fancy stuff such as neon etc.

With one flick it's all "dark and back to normal-modus"



Soon, i'll try to post some pictures of my audio... (it's not that much)


Regards, Mark

@ scotty:

That's a nice colour you have got there

You have a special v.i.p. ticket fot the carwash? Haha.. just kidding, no offense mate..

Like the rims as well

The wiper is home made, and it's one of the two wipers of the Brava itselve..

The mechanic part is also from the Brava, i have made a little adjustment to the arm wich is mounted on the motor of the wiper...(this is hard to spell and write down correct English..so forgive me :S)

The car is build in 1996, and has been driven voor 263.000 kilometers..

But for as long as she holds i'm enjoying it

It has a 1.6 16 valve gasoline engine..wich is perfect for my.. ( i take a look at the speeding tickets lol


Regards, Mark

The wiper will only wipe an arc is the centre of the screen if i am thinking he has done it the same way i did it once??

Is all you do is take the passenger wiper off and remount it half way up the screen, then it does the same cycle but starting half way up the screen instead of at the bottom, does not give a very good range of wipe!

Then just remove the drivers wiper obviously!

I presume thats how its done any way??

 

[Mark]

The correct way of making a single arm conversion is to take the whole wiper assembly apart, and move the pivot points. Means drilling, refixing, and possibly welding.

If you get that right, you'll get a full wipe arc.

Did it to my very first car (Maestro), took ages to get the fitment correct, but worked very well once done.

 

[ItalianBitch]

Hi there... thanks voor all those reply's

The wiper you all seems to love...

Unfortunaly it doesn't make a full arc of 180 degrees...

That's a small project for forthcoming winter

I think that'it's gonna be nothing more than welding lol

This was just a testing fase, and i am very pleased with the way it looks, but not the way it works.

I had in mind to use the rear wiper from the Brava and mount it at the front, because it has a smaller arc,and a thicker look..

You all know the rear whiper, so further explaination wont be neccesary.

But as a car mechanic like me, it shouldn't be a problem to fix it

I promised to post some pictures of my audio, it isn't much:







And some more pictures:













and two movies :








Regards, Mark

In my opinion interior looks terrible. I dont like the colours you used. Also that exhaust is too big for me.

Rest is ok

Enjoying every minute with it ...

 

[Zarko]

what kind of exhaust you have, maybe ragazzon supersprint, i need new exhaust and that was so beautiful.
