Nice upgrade Adam,
Did you put a relay kit in, or did you design one yourself. Maybe now you can find time to mow the lawn.

They're factory fitted on Australian 911s, David! I just like the chrome. The '89 has colour-coded rims.
I've got 2 good excuses for the lawn too.. 1) I damaged a disc in my back... 2) That's not my lawn!

AFAIK, they were standard everywhere EXCEPT the US!!!
I like them too - Adam did you get new ones? What is the A$ price per pair (I sort of need a set). Cam

Do they put relays in as well? You can't have the one without the other, that is, unless you like to purchase new signal stalks on a regular basis!
The Sucro kit is a beaut. Highly recommended and a fraction above the cost of gathering the parts yourself. John

Cam,
These were replaced when my car was hit/pushed in an accident. I only posted the pic as it's the first clear photo I've taken of it. I bought them from the Porsche Centre, Melbourne. They have them on special at AUD$250 each. If you want to get some, I can help you out with leg work etc. Doug, great looking car! Is that an oil cooler intake in the front valence?

I wish I could Adam - I'm sort of unemployed at the moment and am going to have to keep using what I've got (very serviceable H1s, but they dip to the right as the car is LHD).

I agree adam. The chrome ring makes it. Mine are quite flat compared to some H4's i've seen around.

I think it is more than the lenses (so I've been told). They actually already have H4 lenses... thanks to the PO.
I've quit - its true. I am at work for a couple of weeks more then am going to start and intensive "finish my cars" binge. Then I need to move to Bondi and collect the dole. I want to feel "at home".

John! LOL
Cam, that price is for the whole assembly (including the chrome rims!), but I didn't know you could just change the lenses on H1s. Sounds much cheaper.

Cam, I'm told that all you do is adjust the reflector slightly to the left and replace the lhd lenses with rhd lenses. It is these lenses that focus the beam.
So what are you going to do when the cars are finished? Your wife-to-be is a doctor isn't she? I've always wanted to be a kept man..., you know, live off her earnings  (police call it pimping)Well don't forget you always have someone up in Northern Australia to visit once you get to Bondi.

I dunno what I'll do. "Your wife-to-be is a doctor isn't she? " Yeah, but the wife-to-be is a doctor-to-be ---> 5 years more till she starts earning an income!
So until I can be her, uh, pimp as you so eloquently put it, I'm either going to: - go back to more merchant banking - find another career - go back to uni (PhD - I figure being a Dr would get up the SCWDP noses )Need to think carefully about finances. While Anna can probably handle living like a student (she already does), I don't know that I can
