Hi Caitlyn,

If you're near Brizzy i'd be happy to help with the brakes etc. You can buy flasher relays that use a timer instead of a bi-metallic strip which flash faster due to the lower current draw of LED's.

The car looks great by the way, I always wanted a manual V8 (turbo or supercharged tho..)

Thanks Tai,
If you have a link to those relays please do share, only info I've found is either resistors or changed capacitor. But I need to pull out the left headlight soon to reseal as it leaks water and was thinking of putting in LED indicators in there too.

A digital relay would make the whole thing plug and play.

Brake system is working flawlessly at the moment with near new looking discs and pads all round, but I'll keep you in mind if I ever need help with it.

Next service is due January 2020, and that's the 10 year mark on the timing belt too so if you or someone else here can do belts I'll happily pay for that. I'm willing to help out with it too, just been 8 years since I last worked as a mechanic and rarely did more than services/warranty replacements so would rather not go alone (or pay a dealer thousands for that matter)
