Re: Stereo systems

The head unit has changed a few times - currently a JVC CD player me thinks. Sony 4 channel amp Some ancient front split speakers. American made - Power Vision I think. They sounded awesome in the shop and it wasn't until I got them home that I discovered it's hard to fit a 6.5" woofer in a Sig...

Re: i rly need help

The switch which operates the lights and hi/lo beam is all one unit with the indicator and wiper stalks. You have to replace the whole thing as far as I know. The unit slips off once the steering wheel is removed. You just need to unclip the connector under the steering column and reconnect with new...

Re: widening stock galant wheels...? finding tires..?

But then again, 12 slotters look gay no matter what unless they are on an Old School Falcon.
Have you ever tried explaining to someone in their WB ute that the 12 slotters they so proudly point to are traditionally a Ford wheel? :\ It doesn't go down well.

Re: stock tachometer installation on a GH Sigma

Hi there. I had the same instruments as you have and I replaced the whole instrument cluster with one that had a factory tacho. I don't know whether you can just change the one gauge. As for extra wiring, it was just one wire to the coil and that was already in the loom waiting to be hooked up.

The wire to the tacho is the white one from the + side of the coil.
