Wow man, you haven't been on in forever!

^So how is the Euro switch project coming along?

KeepItKauai · 11-05-2009, 08:30 PM

I don't think it would work. You would probably need the junction box to go with it :/

You want a copy of the TIS?

YZ04 · 11-05-2009, 10:41 PM

Yeah if you could send me a copy that'd be awesome

So everything else works, just no parking lights?

KeepItKauai · 11-05-2009, 10:47 PM

Yup, everything works except the parking light position and the leveling. It's almost certain that you would probably need to get a junction box from Europe to get it to work. Lame.

Also, did you get the euro washer bottle to fit the side markers? I ordered some ST170 ones and now I'm on the hunt for the bulb holders and harness. I have a hunch that I could use Cougar ones, but currently there's none at my junkyard.

EDIT: Bingo!

I'll probably still get the switch anyways for the rear fogs, and wire the parking lights into the headlight wire

As for the washer bottle, I didn't bother importing one. What I did do was put my stove on high, and carefully "mold" the washer bottle with a really thick pair of gloves. I made a huge depression into where the indicator sticks out (or in). It's almost like wax when you get it hot enough. I didn't bother getting a harness as well. IIRC I think I used female connector pins and attached them to the socket leads. I forget already, but I didn't bother getting a harness haha

Yeah I heard of the melting technique too. Seems to be much easier since it would probably cost quite a bit to get a new one.

Just charge the switch, even if you can't get the parking light function to work, it's worth it for the rear fog. Also, the parking position has the gauge cluster light up, the plate lights light up, and the fender markers light up only. Or at least that's what I read.

At least I made a new discovery, Cougar bulbholders and harness will fit! Yay for part recycling Ford hahaha!

KeepItKauai · 11-06-2009, 09:38 PM

Okay, I ripped the ISO of the Ford TIS and made you a copy YZ04.

YZ04 · 11-07-2009, 12:19 AM

You burned it on a DVD yeah? Need my address/payment for shipping?

Oh and what bulb holder on the cougar is compatible with the Euro triangles? I might go junk yard hunting next weekend haha

YZ04 · 11-07-2009, 12:20 AM

Haha nvm I just saw the edit above for the side indicators

KeepItKauai · 11-07-2009, 12:40 AM

You wanna do a trade then? If you go junkyard hunting I trade you the TIS for bulbholders and pigtails?

If you find F350 dually side (or roof) lights, they have the same bulb holder and harness.

PM me your shipping info and I can send it out tomorrow morning.

And yeah it's on a DVD. I ripped the ISO from mine and burnt it, I tested it and it works. I also Light Scribed the exact wording that's on my disc. I just might keep the copy I made for you since the disc looks cooler lol!

Will the DVD work on a Mac?
