Had a lot of time to work on the D this week. Got started on the electrics for the headlight and made a side front indicater out of the running light. I use Hella units with build in parking lights. Took them out of my 82 chevy blazer, that I am not using at the moment due to changed laws overhere in the Netherlands. I am improving my skills, so no scotch locks were used! The inner sealed beams will go back in, did read on the Dutch Delorean forum that it is legal in NL.
When I got the car high beam did not work, first I think it was the relay, but it turned out that one of the spades was pushed down under the relay. Also found out why only one fan was running, one inline fuse in the fan fail department was corroded.
Got the rear springs and shocks removed and pushed the bushes out and ordered some new ones in the UK.
Took the trailing arm TAB's out, they looked very good and straight, but are only 10.9. So I went to our local farm tractor dealer and picked up 12.9 quality bolts. They were only 2,8 euro a piece.
When I was under the car also made a exta ground cable from the tab - frame ground bolt to the gearbox. No need to order that in the USA, made it myself.
